⚠ Afternoon storms hit fast. Heavy downpours follow. Localised flooding swamps low-lying roads and unpaved streets. Southern neighbourhoods like Mvan and Nsam suffer most. Drainage infrastructure overflows quickly there. Standing water hits knee height on worst stretches. Skip cross-city transport between 2 PM and 5 PM. Roads become impassable then. ⚠ Mosquito populations explode during June rains. Yaounde sits in a high-transmission malaria zone at every elevation. Anti-malarial prophylaxis is essential. Get it from a travel medicine clinic before departure. Apply DEET-based repellent nightly. Sleep under treated bed nets where available. Do not skip these steps.
