Cyclone Kenneth on final approach to Mozambique. By Ian Livingston Ian Livingston Email Bio Follow April 25 at 12:30 PM After exploding in intensity to the equivalent of a high-end Category 4 hurricane, Tropical Cyclone Kenneth was crashing ashore in northern Mozambique on Thursday, six weeks after the country was devastated by its deadliest storm on record, Cyclone Idai. The country is still recovering from that trauma.
While storms in the southern Indian Ocean such as Idai and Kenneth are called tropical cyclones, they are no different from hurricanes that hit the United States. These two storms were probably the equivalent of Category 3 or “major” hurricanes at landfall. #NOAA20 #VIIRS True Color and Infrared images of Category 4 Cyclone #Kenneth near the coast of #Mozambique around 11 UTC: https://t.co/BRR0t5k3nv pic.twitter.com/dbJgT4Brwb
Additionally, maximum ocean waves of 40 feet were highlighted by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in its last advisory before landfall. With the remains of Kenneth sitting and wandering through the weekend, weather models are spitting out a widespread area of 20 inches or more of rain across that area. Flooding rains seem likely to extend into southern Tanzania, as well, although the heaviest appears to focus south of the border.
