Through the #EarlyWarningsForAll initiative, Kenya commits to ensuring that every person receives life-saving alerts by 2027. This commitment is critical — our national temperatures have already risen by 1°C since 1960, and projections show a possible 2.5°C rise by 2050 if we don’t act now. ⏳ The time for action is now. Let’s work together to build a safer, climate-resilient Kenya. ✅ Stay informed: 📲 Track rainfall & storms: https://tinyurl.com/FASTAweather 🔗 Join our WhatsApp Alerts Channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaKL444FMqreWDdAch2n 🌐 Visit us online: https://www.meteo.go.ke
