Daily Weather in Tanzania


The city I used for my country's three-day forecast is Dodoma, the capital city of Tanzania. The following forecast will cover the days of April 4, April 5, and April 6. The forecasted high for the first day is 83 degrees Fahrenheit while the low is 66 degrees Fahrenheit. The Precipitation percent for that day is .74 inches. On the second day, the forecasted high is 81 degrees Fahrenheit and the low also being 66 degrees Fahrenheit. Precipitation for the second day is .5 inches. Lastly, the forecasted high on the third day is 84 degrees Fahrenheit with the low being 67 degrees and the precipitation percent of .14 inches. The average pressure over 4/4-4/6 are 69 inches with the pressure increasing and decreasing over time. The average wind speed over the five-day period is 9 mph with the wind speed decreasing over time. 



In this current satellite image of Tanzania, there are a lot of clouds being shown in this picture. Most of the clouds are low, warm clouds being shown as grey and white color s in this image. Also shown on the radar is precipitation in this region. A lot of the precipitation is shown on the top left of the image with heavy purple, pink, green, yellow, and blue colors with a few blue, yellow, green colors scattered across the country. A few vegetation and surface characteristics shown  are mountain range to the right of Dodoma, a lake called Salanga to the left of the capital city, and also Swaga Swaga Game reserve towards the top of the country.



In this zoomed in regional map of Eastern Africa, there are just a few things that I noticed on this map. In this map I see just two 1008 mb. Also shown are actually three 1012 mb. These could be part of isobars of the country with the 1008mb being part of the low pressures and the 1012 part of an isobar. My guess would be that the high pressure areas are at a different park of Africa since the low pressures seem to be shown on the eastern side.



This regional picture is a zoomed out picture of the continent of Africa. In this picture I not only see isobars and pressure points on Africa, but I also see where the isobars are on the ocean and where the possible low and high pressures are. There seems to be a lot of high and low pressure towards the bottom left of the picture. On this picture, it seems to just show 1012mb actually on the land of Africa.
