Sewer systems have overflowed and caused open sewage to mix with floodwaters. The floods also contributed to increased power outages as many power stations were flooded and authorities have reported deaths caused by electrocution. Roads were damaged and drainage systems blocked even days after the rains stopped. The Iraqi Prime Minister on 1 November declared the status of emergency in areas overwhelmed by the heavy rains. Humanitarian partners estimate that the floods have affected at least 84,000 displaced people staying in more than 40 sites and camps, mostly in Baghdad and Anbar governorates.   TC-2015-000152-YEM Tropical Cyclone Yemen Tropical Cyclone MEGH is moving west over the Arabian Sea, strengthening towards Socotra island and northern Somalia. Heavy rain and strong wind may affect Socotra island and northern Somalia over 8-10 November.  FL-2015-000151-BLZ Flood Belize On Sunday, 18 October 2015 at 6:00 a.m., NEMO reported that an area of low pressure moved away from Belize, causing heavy rainfall across the country and affecting Belize City in particular, where residents were affected by localized flooding; the heavy rains began on 15 October. This system continued to produce heavy rainfall across coastal, northern and western Belize throughout the night and into Monday, 19 October, causing severe flooding in Belize City and other parts of the country.  DR-2015-000150-GTM Drought Guatemala According to information from the Institute of Seismology, Volcanology, Meteorology and Hydrology of Guatemala (INSIVUMEH), the 2015 rainy season has been strongly affected by El Niño and its side effects. Rainfall levels have been very low this rainy season. Eastern regions of the Guatemalan dry corridor have not had rain for over 30 or 40 days. Analyses from the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) indicate that much of the Central American dry corridor is experiencing a drought, where soils have very low moisture content and are classified as "withered". According to FEWS NET estimates, at least 25 municipalities in the eastern and central dry corridor are facing Crisis-level (Phase 3, CIF) food insecurity, and 15 others are stressed (Phase 2, CIF). The affected region includes areas in the departments of Chiquimula, Jutiapa, Jalapa, Zacapa, El Progreso, Baja Verapaz, Quiché, Totonicapán, Huehuetenango and San Marcos.   TC-2015-000149-YEM Tropical Cyclone Yemen On 31 October 2015, satellite images revealed Tropical Cyclone Chapala approaching the shores of Yemen and Oman with wind speeds between 220 and 250 kilometres (136 and 155 miles) per hour. The World Meteorological Organization has described Chapala as an extremely severe cyclonic storm, the equivalent of a Category 4 hurricane.  OT-2015-000148-IDN Other Indonesia Forest and land fires which occurred in some of the islands of Borneo (Kalimantan) and Sumatra resulted in a very dense haze, with conditions on the round getting more and more serious. The Centre for Health Crisis of Ministry of Health (CHC/MOH) reported that the forest fire which caused this haze started on 1 March 2015 in Riau Province. By now the affected area spread into six other provinces, four in kalimantan (West, East, South and Central Kalimantan) and three in Sumatra Island (Jambi, Riau and South Sumatera). In the last few weeks, the haze has also affected neighbouring countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines. The intensification of this disaster is the consequence of El Nino in the region, with severe droughts and significant delay of the rainy season, therefore preventing the effect of the rain on forest fires. BMKG (National Meteorological, Climatology and Geophysics Agency) recorded the number of hotspots as 1,200 points spread in Sumatra and Borneo (where Kalimantan region is located). On the island of Sumatra, there are 771 hotspots spread across several provinces, including Bengkulu (33 points), Jambi (99 points), Bangka Belitung (41 points), Lampung (42 points), Riau (28 points), West Sumatra (8 points), and South Sumatra with 530 points. On the island of Borneo, 429 hot spots are spread across four provinces, namely West Kalimantan (154 points), South Kalimantan (65 points), Central Kalimantan (74 points), and 136 points in East Kalimantan.   EQ-2015-000147-AFG Earthquake Afghanistan A powerful earthquake struck a remote area of northeastern Afghanistan on 26 October 2015, shaking the capital Kabul and killing at least 17 people.  EQ-2015-000147-IND Earthquake India   EQ-2015-000147-PAK Earthquake Pakistan A powerful earthquake struck a remote area of northeastern Afghanistan on Monday, shaking the capital Kabul and killing at least eight people in neighbouring Pakistan, officials said.  FL-2015-000146-DZA Flood Algeria Heavy rains and flooding have caused widespread damage to five camps providing shelter to some 90,000 of the most vulnerable Sahrawi refugees in south-west Algeria's arid Tindouf region.

Food insecurity is likely to worsen by the end of the year. This will be due to below-average agricultural production, poor rainfall in some pastoral and agro-pastoral areas, trade disruption in the most conflict-affected areas, and continued displacement.  TC-2015-000133-CHN Tropical Cyclone China, People's Republic Typhoon Dujuan, the 21st typhoon this year, made landfall in east China's Fujian Province on Tuesday morning.
