The Malawi Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education has announced a temporary suspension of school lessons in certain districts from today until Thursday due to the anticipated arrival of Tropical Storm Jude.

In a statement, Principal Secretary Dr. Rachel Chimbwete Phiri explained that the decision follows a weather advisory from the Department of Climate Change and Meteorological Services, which predicts the cyclone's landfall. Additionally, the Ministry of Water and Sanitation has issued a warning about the likelihood of flash flooding as several major rivers are expected to swell.
