Drought has become a major challenge in many Sub‐Saharan Africa countries. This study aimed to investigate the precipitation trends and drought incidents in the semi‐closed Raya graben in Ethiopia. Monthly precipitation records of nine meteorological stations for the years 1980–2016 were studied. The spatio‐temporal drought conditions were analysed using Man‐Kendall and Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) techniques. A decreasing trend of precipitation was observed during the spring season (March−May) (p
