Today more than 120 countries have multi-hazard early warning systems, a big leap from ~50 countries a decade ago. But many are still unprotected. #EarlyWarningsForAll is not a luxury. It saves lives, reduces economic losses, & provides tenfold return on investment.

El Niño conditions are now established in the Pacific and expected to strengthen through 2026. For the Greater Horn of Africa, that raises the likelihood of wetter-than-normal conditions this October–December. The rains are not here yet, but the window to act is. @UNOCHA_ROSEA icipatoryAction #DisasterRiskReduction

ℹ️📹 Depending on whether we're in an #ElNiño, #LaNiña, or neutral phase, East Africa typically sees different impacts, and these impacts can even work in opposite directions across different seasons. So the effect of an #ElNiño or #LaNiña can look very different in the d compared to other times of year.
What's especially remarkable this year isn't just how confident we are that #ElNiño will develop, or how likely it is, but also how strong it could turn out to be, explains Stefan Lines, Science Manager (Seasonal & Sub-Seasonal) at the Met Office.
