7-day outlook

Kafue (Chipongwe)

Each day shows the high and low temperature, expected rain and chance of rain. The field work index (0 to 100) rates how suitable the day is for spraying and field work: it drops with rain, wind and extreme heat.

What it means for your farm

Advice for the week ahead.

Advice is generated from the forecast using simple rules for heavy rain, wet spells, heat, dry spells, wind, cold nights and good spraying days. It is a guide to help you plan, not a substitute for your own judgement or for official warnings from the Zambia Meteorological Department.
