Rainfall expected: Civil Protection calls for vigilance

Civil Protection issued a warning today concerning the weather conditions predicted this afternoon, Tuesday, August 27, 2024.

Thunderstorm cells accompanied by rain are anticipated in the North-West and Center-West and locally in the East of the country.

These weather conditions are expected on Wednesday and will be characterised by temporarily stormy rains in the North, locally in the Center and in some regions of southern Tunisia.

Heavy rains are expected on Wednesday afternoon in the western regions with precipitation between 20 and 40 millimeters and hail. A strong wind will blow and exceed 90 km / h which could cause an increase in water levels in several Oueds and the accumulation of water on some roads.

Confronted with these dangers and risks, civil protection has recommended that citizens stay away from wadis, avoid crossing waterways, secure objects likely to fly away and follow the instructions of local authorities to ensure their safety and that of their property.
