Tropical Cyclone Eloise hits Mozambique
Format
Tropical Cyclone Eloise made landfall early morning on 23 January near Mozambique s city of Beira, causing widespread damage and flooding on a long swathe of coastline and impacting an area still recovering from Cyclone Idai. Neighbouring southern African nations are also being hit by torrential rainfall and flooding from Eloise, which weakened to a tropical storm after landfall.
Tropical Cyclone Eloise made landfall at Category 1 strength, with winds of 140 km/h and gusts up to 160 km/h, according to Mozambique’s National Institute of Meteorology (INAM) and WMO’s Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre La Réunion (MeteoFrance). Beira received 250 mm of rain in 24 hours, according to INAM. Other areas that were flooded ahead of Eloise’s landfall also received additional heavy rains.
It will bring hurricane-force winds, heavy rainfall and the risk of coastal flooding, with widespread humanitarian impacts, and underlines once again the importance of WMO’s efforts to strengthen early warnings and build resilience, especially in vulnerable countries on the frontline of climate change.
Eloise impacted Madagascar before crossing the Mozambican Channel, killing at least one person and causing damage.
It is forecast that Eloise will make landfall near the city of Beira, between the Zambezi delta and Save river delta. Given that Eloise is a large system, there is a high probability (above 90%) that Beira will be affected or grazed by the radius of maximum winds, according to WMO’s Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre La Réunion (MeteoFrance).
