Summary

[edit]
Description
English: On January 20, 2019, the fifth named storm of the 2018-2019 South-west Indian Ocean tropical cyclone season spun up over the southern Mozambique Channel. Tropical Cyclone Desmond drifted to the northwest, making landfall about 25 mi (40 km) south of Chinde, Mozambique in the very early morning hours of January 22. While wind speeds remained low, the storm brought rain and flooding to coastal areas. According to several media reports, about 11 in (277 mm) of rain was reported in Beira, located 124 mi (200 km) south of landfall, in 24 hours. The expected rainfall in January in that location is 9.8 in (250 mm). The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board NASA’s Terra satellite acquired a true-color image of Tropical Cyclone Desmond on January 22, shortly after the storm made landfall.
