`The rainfall in September and October was higher than the season average but soil moisture was low as the rains came after draught.

East Mesaoria received heavy rainfall in November but the Güzelyurt aquifer didn’t because of low rainfall in west Mesa ` Mr Ok

He noted that each drop of water that is saved is a giant contribution to our water supply.



Some local showers forecast for the last month of the autumn but the TRNC is expected to receive less rainfall than the average.



The temperatures are expected to be 1 to 2 degrees Celsius higher than the season average in November and December while the temperatures are expected to be few degrees lower than the average.
