There is also lack of personnel for customer relations (awareness, identification of their needs) and marketing. However, while we stress the great need for more staff and training, the great contribution being made by the present staff under these conditions is highly commendable

Meteorological station  71 Rainfall stations  10 Automatic stations  13 Agro-synoptic stations  72 Climatological stations  PUMA station (Satellite Image Reciever) CURRENT INFRASTRACTURE

We are Rwanda’s national weather and climate service. Vision To provide accurate, timely weather and climate information and products for the general welfare of the people Mission To be a highly efficient and effective Meteorological Service, which is customer and employee focused
