Bulletin 20 Septembre 2017

Selon les informations disponibles au 20 Septembre, OPIDIN prévoit que les inondations en 2017 seront inférieures aux deux dernières années (2015 et 2016). Avec l'information actuelle disponible, il est prédit que l'inondation aura un niveau modéré (582 cm à l’échelle de Mopti). Cette prédiction du niveau des inondations a déjà une grande fiabilité, mais dépend toujours des précipitations supplémentaires dans le bassin du Niger supérieur au cours des prochaines semaines.
