Is it possible to use 'explain about'?

Where I live, many people use about with explain. For example, Let me explain about the situation.

Is it possible for both words to be used together?

Thanks.

It' not uncommon, but using 'about' makes it sound like the explanation will be less precise and less complrehensive. Clive
