During the second ten days of April, the Basins benefiting from the Belg season will experience moderate to high moisture levels. This condition enhances both surface water flow and ground water resource availability. On the other hand, the excessively high moisture occurring intermittently in some sub-basins such as Omo-Gibe, Rift valley, and in urban centers as well as flood-prone rural areas, may lead to localized flooding. To mitigate and prevent such negative impacts, and to effectively manage the high moisture observed, it is advisable to implement early preparedness and pre-emptive measures .
