El Nino appears to be subsiding, says expert

KOTA KINABALU: The prolonged dry spell that was expected to last until June in Sabah appears to be easing off.

Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) Climatology and Oceanography professor Dr Fredolin Tanggang said persistent rains in the state over the past few weeks indicated that the El Nino-induced dry spell that began in March was on the wane.
