Baraawee, Somalia, March 1996. Barraawe, Somalia is located among the coastal sand dunes south of Mogadishu. A cold episode or what some have called a La Nina, was ending in the Pacific when this photo was taken. The temperatures along the west coast of equatorial South America were still slightly cooler than normal, but not more than 1 deg C, and continuing toward normal conditions.
