Several weeks of soaking rains have resulted in saturated soils and swollen
rivers, as well as flooding problems across western Angola. Additional
heavy rains are expected during the period, which may result in additional
flooding problems.

"Over 4,000 people have been cut off from surrounding areas by flood waters
near the town of Dondo in the northern
<http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/data/angola.html>Angolan province of
Cuanza Norte, where 10,000 people have already been made homeless by
floods. According to official sources on Thursday, the stranded group, from
nine villages around the town of Massangano, about 170 kilometers east of
the capital, urgently need drinking water and food supplies after taking
refuge on high ground from flooding that began nearly a week ago after the
River Kapacala burst its banks."
