Summary for the upcoming 3-month period, November to January 2021-’22: “La Niña conditions are in place. This means particularly high flooding, flash flood, landslide, rockfall and soil erosion potential across Belize and the Caribbean Islands until December and, from late- November, in the coastal Guianas. With the transition into the dry season in Belize and the islands, frequent, short dry spells are expected from Hispaniola westward, potentially impacting unprotected crop farming, especially in the case of preexisting drought. On a positive note, with the 2021 Heat Season ending in October, heat stress should quickly subside.”
