The report also found that 613 smaller disasters have taken place across the country due to the rains, including landslides, avalanches, windstorms, hail storms, and floods.

The rains and freak weather are part of the La Niña weather phenomenon, which is now coming to an end after starting in March. Despite this, forecasters predict that the heavy rain will continue throughout May and June during Colombia’s rainy season.
