The International Organization for Migration warned of an imminent crisis in Somalia due to expected above-average rainfall and the strengthening El Nino weather phenomenon. New projections estimate that 874,319 people could be displaced between October and December. Flooding is projected to account for 92 percent of this displacement. The IOM stated it had secured only 14 percent of the $16.62 million required for preparation and response.
