On 15 March the tropical cyclone Idai made landfall in Mozambique causing many fatalities. The cyclone formed from a tropical depression that already had brought fatal floodings to Mozambique and Malawi the week before. During the second landfall a storm surge hit the area of Beira together with extreme wind and extensive rainfall leading to further flooding inland.
