Moderate to high surface water cover and flow are expected in most of the country's basins, which benefit from kiremt moisture, in September. This is expected to increase surface and groundwater flow, increasing the amount of water entering both artificial and natural water reservoirs and reservoirs, and will have a positive role in improving water resources. On the other hand, the high surface water flow into dams during the past winter months, coupled with the high water flow expected in the future, may pose a threat to flash floods and river overflows, especially in low-lying and shallow basins and sub-basins that are prone to flooding, especially in the Tekeze, Abay (Fincha and Tana Beles dams), Omo Gibe and upper Baro Akobo basins. Therefore, it is recommended that relevant stakeholders implement the proposed basin-based hydro meteorological recommendations to minimize potential risks and maximize opportunities
