Title
Ethiopia: Rainfall Anomaly
Description
Rainfall anomaly represents the difference between observed rainfall and the long-term average for a specific location and period, indicating whether rainfall is above or below normal. Positive anomalies show higher-than-average rainfall, while negative anomalies indicate lower amounts. These anomalies help monitor climate patterns, droughts, floods, and their effects on agriculture and other sectors. For this analysis, we used CHIRPS daily rainfall data for Ethiopia and calculated anomalies for May to July 2025 by subtracting the 2000-2020 long-term average from the current values.
