In this bulletin, satellite rainfall estimates and vegetation greenness for the 3rd Dekad of May 2026 were generated using TAMESAT and METOSAT vegetation products. During this period, moderate rainfall was observed in parts of the Belg rain-benefiting areas, particularly in the southern, southwestern, and southeastern regions, resulting in significant vegetation cover as indicated by the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). In contrast, in Benishangul Gumuz, Gambella, South West Ethiopia, western Oromia and Amhara received minimal to high rainfall. These regions showed low vegetation cover, with some areas exhibiting bare or sparse vegetation.
