Temperatures could plummet to 13°C, with elevated areas reaching as low as -5 to -10°C. The MSD blames a cool and moist south-easterly airflow moving in on Friday and Saturday.
Expect cloudy skies, windy conditions, light rain, and drizzle. Residents, dress warmly and take precautions!
By Sunday, the weather will shift slightly, with scattered clouds and milder conditions in Bulawayo, southern Matabeleland North, Midlands, Harare, and Mashonaland East.
