Cyclone Dikeledi intensifying again near Mozambique

Cyclone Dikeledi has strengthened again this evening as it draws nearer to the coast of northern Mozambique, taking on a track only a little further south of Cyclone Chido last month. However, this storm is expected to turn further south as it grazes the coast of Mozambique, and is likely to intensify again when it draws clear in the Mozambique Channel.

Dikeledi may cause over 300mm of rainfall in parts of Mozambique, with flooding issues extending inland. Additional rainfall only partially related to the storm will also affect the area around Beira.

Dikeledi may go on to affect the southwestern part of Madagascar later in the week, and could again be at hurricane equivalent status as it does so, again with heavy rainfall.

Elsewhere, Cyclone Pita died out over the South Pacific and is no longer a threat to any land areas. Invest 97S has seen a similar fate in the Southern Indian Ocean, far from the coast of Western Australia. Invest 99S formed recently southeast of Christmas Island, and is not expected to form anytime soon.
