July was, for the most part, very dry, with a few isolated showers to settle the dust.  However, there was a very heavy smoke haze and poor visibility for much of the month, caused by fires in the Main Reserve and Northern Serengeti.

July and August have been the driest since the Conservancy started operating in the Mara, with only around 5 mm recorded at Serena for August. 

July was one of the driest months in the past 20 years, with only one heavy shower recorded at Serena on the 29th. 

We had a few days of low cloud and drizzle from the 8th, the remainder of the month was dry but cool.

July was dry for the most part, with only the occasional shower in the evenings. This meant that the Mara dried out exceptionally quickly and triggered the migration after the 15th.

We had two weeks of rain from the 14th, this was in the form of heavy evening showers and isolated thunderstorms. 

Daily showers in early July and, in places, local storms continued to hamper our work programme.  However, the weather cleared for two weeks and we were able to grade the main Mara Bridge to Oloololo gate road and all the roads to Kichwa, Mpata, Olonana and Little Governors. 

The dry weather continued well into July, with cool, sunny days.  There were a few days with generalised rain and light drizzle after the 20th and then the weather reverted to dry, sunny days until the last few days of the month..
