These conditions have already negatively and irreversibly impacted the winter 2017-2018 agricultural season and are expected to also negatively impact the spring and summer 2018 agricultural season in Afghanistan.

Forecasts indicate below-average to average precipitation for the remaining weeks of the spring wet season. Along with cumulative precipitation deficits, the below-average forecast is reflective of a low frequency of storms entering the region, increasing the risk for extended periods of dryness that could further impact agricultural production.   FL-2018-000051-CHN Flood China, People's Republic More than 70,000 people in southwest China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region have been affected by heavy downpours, the regional flood control and drought relief headquarters said on Thursday.   FL-2018-000050-CHN Flood China, People's Republic Heavy downpours in northwest China's Gansu Province have killed one person, authorities said.
