The Kenya Meteorological Department forecasts a dry and sunny January, raising concerns for farmers and warning of potential impacts on water and energy levels.

Kenyans should brace for scorching sun and dust coats. The Kenya Meteorological Department has issued a forecast predicting a prolonged dry spell across most of the country this January, dashing hopes of early showers for farmers preparing their lands.
The outlook is particularly grim for the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs), where water pans are already drying up. While scattered showers may grace the Lake Victoria Basin and parts of Nairobi, the general picture is one of high temperatures and clear skies—a classic, biting "Njaanuary" weather pattern.
The forecast has triggered alarm bells in several key sectors:
"This is the new normal," warned a climate expert at the University of Nairobi. "We are swinging from floods to droughts with zero transition." As the sun beats down, the government’s disaster preparedness—specifically water trucking and food relief—will once again be put to the test.
