Devastating Flooding in East Africa

Handout photo - Heavy rainfall led to extensive flooding in Somalia, Ethiopia, and Kenya in October and November 2023. The floods came in the wake of the most prolonged drought on record, which left millions of people food insecure between 2020 and 2023. Since October 1, flooding has killed more than 100 people and displaced more than 700,000, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. Countries within the Horn of Africa tend to have two rainy seasons: the October, November, and December (OND) “short rains” and the March, April, and May (MAM) “long rains.” Rainfall in the OND season through mid-November has been much heavier than usual. Since October 1, precipitation totals have been double to quadruple the average for southern and western Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya, according to the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET). Excessive rainfall in the highlands of Ethiopia and Somalia in late October and early November raised the levels of the Shebelle River u
