Serious flooding began on Sunday in parts of northern Mozambique that were hit by Cyclone Kenneth, with waters waist-high in places, after the government urged many people to immediately seek higher ground. https://spectrumnews1.com/oh/dayton/ap-online/2019/04/28/flooding-begins-in-mozambique-in-wake-of-cyclone-kenneth Cyclone Kenneth made landfall on the northern province of Cabo Delgado on Thursday evening, with wind speeds of 220km/h (140mph), which is equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane. It came barely a month after Cyclone Idai killed more than 900 people across three countries, including Mozambique. NOAA-20’s Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor captured this view of the historic storm at around midnight in Mozambique several hours after it made landfall.
