The rain in central, western, and southwestern Uganda is expected to continue within the week of November 22–29, 2022.
“More than usual rainfall is forecast in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, northeastern Kenya, southern Ethiopia, and north-western Tanzania,” the IGAD Climate Prediction and Applications Centre (ICPAC) has said.
ICPAC operates under the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD), which is a regional body to which Uganda subscribes as a member.
IGAD’s ICPAC is a Climate Center accredited by the World Meteorological Organization that provides climate services to 11 East African countries. The services offered by ICPAC aim at creating resilience in a region deeply affected by climate change and extreme weather.
In addition, temperatures are expected to be warmer than average, especially in the northeastern parts of the region.
