There was some widespread, albeit light rain in the first week of December that concentrated the wildebeest in the western half of the Triangle. 

The rains started at the beginning of the month with daily showers, they then petered out and November was, on the whole, dry with beautiful sunny days. 

There were a few isolated storms in the middle of October but on the whole October was a dry month.

The rains that started in mid-August continued throughout September.  

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. 

We normally expect June to be a dry month but the weather pattern that has been typical all year continued with two weeks of sunshine followed by several days of heavy, prolonged rain in the evening and at night. 

We had heavy and localised storms between the 1st and 16th and then widespread storms again in the last week of the month.

Exceptionally heavy and destructive storms characterised the rains in the first week of March. 

Heavy rains continued into early February and then stopped until the last three days of the month, when heavy and widespread storms continued. 

Heavy rains continued daily for the first half of the month, leaving large expanses sodden, with tall grass and no animals.
