Bulletin 10| 09 October 2018
The water level in Mopti showed still a small increase last week, but the rise in water level slowed down considerably. Based on the information available on 9th October, OPIDIN predicts that the flood will be high, comparable to 2016. The water level in Mopti is now 97 cm higher than the peak last year (551 cm, reached on 22 September), and shows the same pattern as in 2016. Although at this stage even a higher flood is predicted, it is expected that the flood will not rise much higher.
