There was one storm on the 3rd, with heavy rain near Ngiro-are attracting thousands of wildebeest into that corner of the Triangle.  More rain on the 9th and 10th through to the 16th

We had a week of intermittent showers from the 14th, sufficient to keep the grass green and bring the migration back into the Triangle.

We had an unexpected shower of rain on the 2nd, followed by four weeks of hot sunny weather, before we had rain on the 29th, making July one of the driest months in years.

We had rain from the 3rd to the 15th, with some quite heavy storms along the escarpment and towards Oloololo Gate.

It was very dry until the 13th when we had sufficient rain to settle the dust, we than had some heavy storms intermittently until the end of the month. Sufficient to send the wildebeest into the main Reserve and back into the Serengeti.

There was a week of rain at the end of the month, sufficient to give the grass a green tinge, but not enough to add much water to the dams and watercourses.

The first three weeks of August were predominantly dry but wildebeest numbers remained very low for this time of year. 

The migration has been very sporadic and weak, although large herds of wildebeest have been seen along the Tanzanian border in the last week of August. 

The month was on the whole dry with one or two isolated showers along the escarpment. 

There was heavy rain over most of the Mara from about the 10th, this continued for the rest of the month.  These rains affected the Mara River, which came up very high on the 17th and remained high for the remainder of the month.

We had typical August weather with sunny days and occasional thunderstorms in the evening. 

There was heavy rain over the whole Triangle on the 11-12th and again in the last week of August.  This was most welcome on the burnt areas and has led to a strong green flush of grass.

For the most part August was dry, with a few thunderstorms towards the end of the month. 

The Mara received above average rainfall in the past year, with most of the rain falling between November and February 

We had heavy and widespread rain in the first week of August, followed by scattered showers and storms for the remainder of the month. 

Kenya held a Referendum on the 4th August to decide on whether to accept a new Constitution. 

We had several days of heavy and widespread rain, starting around the full moon in mid-August and continuing until the end of the month. 

August was dry, with the exception of a few days of rain towards the end of the month. 

President Uhuru Kenyatta visited the Mara Triangle on the 3rd.  He arrived in the morning and left after a late lunch. 

We had a couple of days of rain in the middle of the Triangle around the 6th.  This was followed by several days more rain, some heavy, from the 10th.
