The National Meteorological Service being the government watch dog on issues of weather and
\nclimate observed the year 2021 to be one with numerous significant weather and climate events
\nwhich not only marked the variation and evolution of climate in Cameroon but fitted well in the
\nglobal climate science.
\nThe rainfall situation for 2021 witnessed a late onset in the Centre, Far North and the East regions.
\nInteresting is the fact that this did not have a great negative impact on especially the Agricultural
\nsector which is 90% rainfed. The late onset was very fast compensated for by the continuous and
\nregular rains with little or no dry spells. Extreme rainfall events equally marked the rainy season in
\n2021. Heavy rains in several parts of the country resulted in numerous flashfloods and flooding
\nevents with subsequent consequences that are well highlighted in this report.
\nThe temperature situation analyzed in the report indicates 2021 as the second warmest years for the
\npast twenty one years. A general temperature increase of about <\/span>1.27\u00b0C <\/span>was observed compared to the
\n1981\u20132010 climatology. This was much felt west of the Adamawa plateau with significant warming
\nof <\/span>2\u00b0C to 2.5\u00b0C <\/span>around the western part of the Adamawa.
\nThe observation network with adaptation to technological advances recorded data from its automatic
\nweather stations dotted all over the country as well as manual stations. The deployment of the young
\ntrained technical staff enhanced the data collection process. The data from the NOAA NCEP CPC
\nwas equally used. The satellite reception station with data reception after every 15 minutes in near
\nreal time made numerical weather prediction easier with reliable weather forecast and w rnings
\navailable.
\nAnother very important development that made the 2021 report easier was the realization of the
\nclimatological data digitization project by which the historical climatological data of the National
\nMeteorological Service since colonial time was successfully digitized.<\/span><\/p>\n
