Namibian Winter Time Change

Goodbye Summer
Namibia's annual five-month-long Winter Timer period starts on Sunday.
The country’s official time changes at 02h00 on Sunday morning, when clocks and watches have to be adjusted an hour back, to set the time at one hour in advance of Greenwich Mean Time.
The Winter Time period lasts until the first Sunday in September, when the country reverts to Summer Time, which is two hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time.

Heavenly Rain

The Klein-Aus Vista lodge received 147,8 mm rain within two hours on Tuesday. The average annual rainfall there is about 90 mm. The swollen rivers caused substantial damage to the roads “and changed the landscape quite a bit”, a resident said. Klein Aus Vista is situated west of Aus in the Karas Region.
