East Africa expects drier-than-usual conditions from January to March
The Horn of Africa region is among the worst hit by climate change as drought, floods, and pests become common amid higher temperatures of 32 degrees Celsius.
The East Africa region will experience drier-than-usual conditions between January and March 2025, the Climate Prediction and Applications Center of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (Igad), a regional bloc, said on Monday.
The centre said in a forecast that the drier conditions will affect mainly Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Burundi, and Tanzania.
The region will also record warmer-than-usual temperatures during the January-to-March 2025 season.
