The Kenya Meteorological Department (KMD) has released the weather outlook for the period between October 15th and 21st.

In the outlook the weatherman said rainfall is expected in five regions across the country.

This includes over the Central Highlands, Western Kenya, the Lake Victoria Basin, the Rift Valley, and Nort North-western Kenya.

“Isolated storms may occur in these areas,” the KMD said.

The Department said the nights will be chilly in certain parts of the Central Highlands and Central Rift Valley.

However, the KMD said high temperatures of more than 30°C will be experienced in parts of the Coast, South-eastern lowlands, North-eastern, and North-western Kenya during the day.

“Night-time Temperatures: Chilly nights with temperatures below 10°C are likely in some parts of the Central Highlands and the Central Rift Valley,” the KMD said.

The Weatherman has advised Kenyans to stay updated with the latest weather news by visiting http://meteo.go.ke.

Hot Weather in 2023

The World Meteorological Department has published the State of Global Water Resources report 2023.

According to the report, 2023 was marked by unprecedented heat, becoming the hottest year on record at 1.45 °C above pre-industrial levels.

This was as a result of the transition from La Niña to El Niño conditions, as well as the positive phase of the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD).

River Discharge

Additionally, 2023 was marked as drier than-normal to normal river discharge conditions compared to the historical period.

Similar to 2022 and 2021, over 50% of global catchment areas showed river discharge deviations from near-normal conditions, predominantly lower than normal, with fewer basins exhibiting above- and much-above normal conditions.

Besides, large territories of North, Central and South America suffered severe drought and reduced river discharge conditions in 2023.

The Mississippi and Amazon basins saw record-low water levels. The east coast of Africa also experienced above- and much-above-normal discharge.

The Horn of Africa, which had suffered five consecutive dry rainy seasons, was affected by flooding.

Lake Coari in the Amazon faced below-normal water levels, leading to extreme water temperatures, and Lake Turkana, shared between Kenya and Ethiopia, had above-normal volumes, following much-above-normal river discharge conditions.

Groundwater levels

In South Africa the majority of wells showed above-normal groundwater levels, following above-average precipitation in recent years; the same was true in India, Ireland, Australia and Israel.

Notable depletion in groundwater availability was observed in North America and Europe due to prolonged drought.

In Chile and Jordan groundwater levels were also below normal, with the long-term declines due to over-abstraction rather than climatic factors.

Soil moisture

Levels of soil moisture were predominantly below normal or much below normal across large territories globally, with North America, South America, North Africa and the Middle East particularly dry during June–August.

In contrast, certain regions, including Alaska, north-eastern Canada, India and parts of the Russian Federation, experienced much-above-normal soil moisture levels.

The northern and south-eastern coasts of Australia, along with New Zealand’s North Island, also had above-normal soil moisture due to wetter conditions and flooding.
