Full Description

FEWS NET's Haiti Seasonal Monitor for August 2024, dated August 31, 2024. Dry conditions and above-average temperatures returned to eastern Haiti over the last fifteen days, with rainfall in the east running at 75 to 90 percent of normal. Anse-Rouge and Gonaives showed signs of poor vegetation health, and a disorganized area of showers over the central tropical Atlantic was associated with a tropical wave. The reversal is confined to the east. The monitor reads the season under way: cumulative rainfall against the long-term mean, vegetation condition from satellite NDVI, and what both imply for planting, crop development and harvest. Its cover date closes the 30-day window it reports on.
