The Kenya Meteorological Department (Kenya Met) has warned of continued heavy rainfall and potential flooding across many parts of Kenya throughout April. Residents are advised to prepare for intensified downpours, particularly in the latter half of the month.

• The long rains are primarily driven by the northward migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
• Regions like the Rift Valley counties, Lake Victoria Basin, and areas East of the Rift Valley, including Nairobi, are expected to experience widespread rainfall and occasional storms.
• Kenya Met urges residents in flood-prone areas and water resource managers to monitor river levels closely and for farmers to implement drainage measures to mitigate potential flooding and crop damage.
