All of the Serengeti has been subject to substantial rain over the last couple of days. This has ranged from a few days of almost solid rain in the north, to a light drizzle around Ndutu. From the weather charts, it looks as if the wet period will be with us for a while, so we can expect it to have substantial impact on the location of the Migration.
While the rains will promote the new rich grass growth, it will be a week or two before the areas that had no cover at the end of the dry season gain enough grass to support the large herds. However, the Migration will be on the move towards the central and southern Serengeti over the next few days.
