Moderately Dry to Severely Dry Conditions
Countries with pronounced rainfall deficit included a few pockets of northern Sudan, western South Sudan, southeastern Ethiopia, central Somalia, coastal parts of Kenya and a few pockets in Tanzania.
Wetter Than Normal Conditions (Green and Light Green)
- Much Wetter than Normal (Dark Green): Concentrated heavily over the northern parts of the region including Sudan, South Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Djibouti and northern Somalia as well as a few pockets in Uganda.
- Wetter than Normal (Light Green): Forms a wide band surrounding the darkest green area, covering most of countries highlighted above.
Near Normal Conditions (Light Blue)

High Rainfall Accumulation (Dark Green to Light Green)
- Highest Rainfall (201–300 mm and 101–200 mm): These values are extremely high for a 10-day period. The dark green (201–300 mm) is focused in isolated pockets within the central region of Ethiopia.
- Significant Rainfall (51–100 mm and 26–50 mm): These categories cover vast areas, forming a wide, central-to-western band across the region, including:
- Most of southern Sudan and South Sudan.
- Large sections of Ethiopia (especially the western highlands).
- Western Kenya and Uganda.
Moderate to Low Rainfall (Yellow and Orange)
- Low Rainfall (11–25 mm and 6–10 mm): These values typically ring the high-rainfall areas and transition into the driest zones. They are concentrated over:
- All countries in the GHA region.
Very Low or No Rain (Light Grey and White)
- Very Low Rainfall (1–5 mm): Forms a major transitional zone across central Kenya, southern Somalia, Sudan, Ethiopia, and parts of Tanzania.
