Rainfall is variable and sparse with no one area receiving more than 400mm of rain annually. Therefore, nomads rely primarily on wells as a water source rather than surface water. There are four main seasons dictated by shifts in wind patterns. Pastoral and agricultural life revolves around these seasons. These are:

Jilal from January to March, the harshest dry season of the year;
Gu is the main rainy season from April to June;
Xagaa from July to September is the second dry season;
Dayr is the shortest and less reliable rainy season, lasting from October to December.
