Before the cyclone Idai was born on 9 march out in the mozambique channel between Madagascar and the african mainland was the tempest, a ”normal low pressure” that caused the extreme rainfall in northern Mozambique and neighbouring Malawi.

The rains caused landslides and floods and claimed around 100 lives.
