These waves may capsize small boats, disrupt lake activities such as fishing, sailing, and swimming, and could lead to drowning and loss of life.1. Avoid traveling on our lakes, especially in small boats, during this period. 2. Fishers are advised to postpone fishing trips until conditions improve. 3. Swimming and recreational activities on lakes should be suspended. 4. Secure boats and equipment near the shoreline to prevent damage. 5. Report any emergencies to local authorities or disaster response teams. 6. All lake users should stay alert to updates from DCCMS.https://www.metmalawi.gov.mw/weather-warnings/strong-mwera-winds-on-our-lakes-from-saturday/nationalmetcentre@gmail.comLake Malawi, lake Malombe,
