In Nairobi, rains are forecasted to begin on Saturday night, following a warm Saturday morning, while the coastal regions are likely to see showers in the mornings and at night.

Counties expecting rainfall include Siaya, Kisumu, Homabay, Migori, Kisii, Nyamira, Trans Nzoia, Baringo, Uasin Gishu, Elgeyo-Marakwet, Nandi, Nakuru, Marsabit, Mandera, Narok, Kericho, Bomet, Kakamega, Vihiga, Bungoma, Busia, and West Pokot. Residents in these areas are advised to stay cautious, as the rains could bring isolated thunderstorms.

Coastal areas, including Mombasa and Kilifi, will experience warmer weather, with daytime temperatures of 33°C to 34°C and nights between 22°C and 25°C.
