STORY By JOHN MUSEMBI
The March-April-May rains are expected to have a late onset, further complicating food security across Kitui county, a largely semiarid region marked by erratic rain seasons resulting to poor harvests. The weatherman says that the late onset will range from anywhere between last week of March to first week of April.
However, the Kenya Meteorological Depart has allayed these fears saying "The MAM 2025 rain season is expected to be near normal to below normal".
"Occasional rainfall is expected in early March followed by a dry spell, then rains to start between 25th March to 7th April and end between 8th and 21st May, 2025. Thus, the length of rain period will be 30-45 days", the weather forecast report reads in part.
