United Green Movement Party leader David Maraga has accused the Kenya Kwanza administration of inadequate El Niño preparation, warning of a humanitarian and environmental crisis if urgent measures are not taken. He cited forecasts by the Kenya Meteorological Department, the World Meteorological Organization, and ICPAC projecting an intense El Niño event from October through early next year, with an eight-in-ten chance of rainfall surpassing the 1997 El Niño disaster.

El Niño has begun and forecasters predict a more than 60% chance it could become a very strong, or super El Niño later in 2026. The phenomenon begins with warmer water in the Pacific Ocean near the equator and can cause dramatic effects on global weather, including severe floods, droughts and storms.

Super Typhoon Bavi was forecast to move westwards over Guam and the Northern Marianas on Monday with winds of 260 kilometers per hour equivalent to a category 5 hurricane. The National Weather Service warned of catastrophic damage, significant flooding from torrential rains, coastal inundation, and waves of up to 35 feet.
Super Typhoon Bavi was forecast to impact Guam and the Northern Marianas on Monday with winds of 260 kilometers per hour, category 5 hurricane-equivalent strength, and projected waves up to 35 feet, prompting evacuations and warnings of catastrophic damage and flooding.

The World Meteorological Organization forecasts moderate or possibly strong El Niño conditions that could drive up global temperatures and increase extreme weather risk through November. Above-average temperatures are predicted across most of the world from June to August, with El Niño likely to raise risks of drought and heavy rainfall.
The World Meteorological Organization warns a new phase of El Niño could begin in weeks and strengthen through 2026, with several forecasts suggesting it may become one of the strongest ever recorded. Scientists cite unusually warm subsurface ocean waters across the Pacific as a key indicator of the potential intensity.
The Kenya Meteorological Department plays a crucial role in planning and decision-making across different regions, helping Kenyans navigate varying weather patterns from dry seasons in Northern Kenya to wet seasons in the Mount Kenya region, affecting food security, transport systems, and quality of life.
