#2 If only they had created adequate reservoirs and dams to capture and reuse the runoff.

#4 Only the North in Somalia is truly dry.

The central part has two wet seasons: Apr-May and Oct-Nov.

The southern part also has two wet seasons the same appx time as the central part but about 2 to 4 weeks longer
