During the reporting period, callers to a nationwide platform indicated rainfall in parts of Hirshabelle and Jubaland states. Conversely, northern and central regions continued to experience intense drought or delayed rainfall.

The disparity in rainfall patterns across Somalia highlights ongoing environmental challenges, with some areas facing water scarcity while others receive precipitation.

Persistent drought in northern and central regions likely exacerbates food insecurity and water shortages for affected populations, contributing to the significant number of internally displaced persons.

The specific impact of these rainfall patterns on agricultural yields and livestock health is not yet covered in recent reporting.
