The Pacific just hit +3.3°C in the Niño 3.4 region. 🌍
Since 1900, 8 of southern Africa’s 10 strongest droughts have come in El Niño years. In 2015, South Africa got just 403 mm of rain, its driest year since 1904.
NOAA gives an 83% chance this becomes a historic El Niño, and the SA Weather Service expects a hot, dry summer. Dams are fuller after a wet season, but that’s a buffer, not immunity.
A 200 m² roof can still catch about 64,000 litres in a 403 mm year. Store it before the dry season. 💧
