The 2019/20 rainfall season started in mid-November extending to the beginning of December in most parts of the country. Very high temperatures were experienced across the country at the beginning of October and quite low maximum temperatures (climatologically) were recorded at the end of the same month. The rainfall was erratic in the first half of the season (October-November-December) but there was a significant improvement in the second half of the season (January-February-March) particularly for the months January and February. This resulted in some areas receiving normal to above normal of their long term average for the sub season JFM. However, most stations measured rainfall which was far below their normal in the two sub-seasons looked at.
