in every 80 years. But in today’s climate, they have become at least four times more likely, expected to occur about once every 20 years. The scientists estimate that climate change contributed to increasing the amount of total rainfall by about 15%. If global warming reaches 2°C, similar periods

  The mean temperature for April was 9.6°C, which is 1.7°C above average for the UK, meaning it was the third warmest April for mean temperature since the series began in 1884. The warmest was 10.7°C recorded in 2011. All four nations recorded a mean temperature of at least 1.6°C above

risks also increased, as water ran off the hills. In 2006 flash floods nearby killed 17 people and ruined crops and farmland. Landslides and floods hit several parts of Rwanda between 07 and 08 May 2016 after a period of heavy rainfall. Government officials say that at least 49 deaths have been

with caution Model simulations which do not fail on any metrics, but where significant biases are present (either an orange or yellow assessment against one or more metrics) or where at least one metric was not assessed Model simulations performed satisfactorily against all metrics considered We then discuss

in terms of climate variables or statistics required, the most useful time and spatial scales, and presentation/ communication of the final climate services product. These 2 processes require the least amount of investment in time and resources but can result in the stakeholders feeling undervalued

projects such as: the increased forecasting capacity acquired through WISER Support to Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Climate Prediction and Application Centre (ICPAC) (W2-SIP), translation of forecasts into local languages in Uganda, Impact Based Early Warning System in Rwanda

% chance). Therefore, it seems likely that La Niña will remain a dominant driver of global weather patterns over the next few months at least, more especially for tropical regions. With a couple of notable exceptions (e.g., East Africa) La Niña, very broadly speaking, tends to increase the likelihood
