pagallim Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Intermittent rain and high winds for the next week, with the highest wind speeds forecast for Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday.

Shot Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Lots of rain in Kamala, with some flooding in the usual areas.
