As the year ends, the weatherman has forecast light rains over few places mostly in central and southern parts of the county. "Light morning rains as well as afternoon and night showers and thunderstorms are expected over few places (probability<33%) during the forecast period". This is more likely to be in Kitui South and Kitui East sub counties.
Kitui county director of meteorological services Daniel Mbithi said residents should use strategies that fight climate change describing the situation as unfamiliar and chaotic environment. "This will help residents adapt to changing climate while at the same time mitigating the adverse effects of climate change", he said in a weekly weather report.

As a result, climate change has caused hotter temperatures, more severe storms, increased drought, warming and rising oceans, loss of species and more health risks.
