The level of the surface dams has decreased to a hazardous level and with some close to being completely dry.   EQ-2023-000141-BGD Earthquake Bangladesh GDACS - High humanitarian impact, magnitude 5.3M  WF-2023-000140-USA Wild fire United States The wildfires that tore through the island of Maui have killed at least 93 people, the county of Maui said late Saturday, making them the deadliest U.S. wildfires in more than 100 years.

Rainfall during the El Niño year starts declining as soon as August in the western Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). Dryness increases through October and November and peaks in January in the year after El Niño. Rainfall in western FSM can be as much as 50-60% below average from January through April in the year after El Niño. Based on these predictions, it is expected that FSM will experience peak drought conditions during the first quarter of 2024, with a likelihood that the El Nino declared by September. Impact of drought will be significantly experienced should the following parameters be met: two consistent weeks without rainfall and the water sounding informs over 50% of community water reservations will be less than 50% capacity. In the unlikely event, Government declares a state of emergency for drought before those parameters are met, MRCS will escalate their response.  WF-2023-000129-SYR Wild fire Syrian Arab Rep Multiple fires have broken out around the coastal and central areas and in Syria. Possible reasons behind these fires differ, including the warm eastern winds that are active during this time of the year in Syria, in addition during the summer there are many dry herbs that burn quickly and the moisture content of the trees is less than what is possible during periods of the year, in addition to the high temperature during this period.

Most of the fires were in rugged mountainous remote areas. The intensity and size of bushfires in some areas have led to the creation of their own weather systems, generating pyro cumulonimbus clouds, trapping heat, and generating strong wind, in turn sparking further fires. High winds have also helped the bushfires to spread, with some fires jumping over highways and roads. These fires led to material and environmental damage, as a few homes of a number of residents were torched, in addition to burning agricultural crops on which they depend as a main source of livelihood, in addition to burning a large part of the vegetation, forests , and natural reserves.  EP-2023-000127-COG Epidemic Congo, Republic Dolisie, especially Niari department is experiencing an epidemic of cholera when the department and the country is not endemic to the disease.
