Aura said moderate rainfall is expected in northern Kenya counties of Marsabit, Mandera, Wajir and Garissa. “Moderate rains expected in south-eastern counties of Kitui, Makueni, Machakos, Kajiado and Taita Taveta,” she said. The five-day forecast said the coastal strip - Mombasa, Tana River, Kilifi, Lamu, and Kwale - will have depressed rainfall. Aura called for contingency plans and strategies to avert conflicts in the coastal strip and southeastern regions due to the scramble of limited resources. She asked the National Disaster Operations Centre to come up with floods mitigation measures in those places.
