The Maldives Meteorological Service has warned of widespread rain and thunderstorms across the country from 7 to 11 November, with a risk of localised flooding on some islands. Flooding after heavy rain has already affected 45 houses and a health centre in Gaafu Dhaalu Kolamaafushi, with the MNDF assisting flooded households in Gaafu Dhaalu Thinadhoo.

The MET Office’s five-day rainfall forecast, which uses the MMS-WRF model and was run on 6 November, shows rain across much of the country throughout the period.
