The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet) has forecast thunderstorms and rainfall across parts of Accra, the middle belt and northern Ghana from the afternoon into the evening.

According to the forecast, early morning conditions will be characterised by mist and fog over coastal, forest and mountainous areas, leading to reduced visibility in some locations, including Accra.

GMet said the foggy conditions may also result in light rain in isolated areas during the early hours of the day.

However, thunderstorms accompanied by rain are likely to develop from mid-afternoon into the evening across parts of southern and middle Ghana, including Accra, Kasoa, Cape Coast, Takoradi, Ho, Koforidua, Kumasi, Obuasi, Tarkwa, Sunyani, Techiman and Kintampo, with a probability of 40–60%.

In addition, isolated thunderstorms or rainfall are expected over parts of northern Ghana, particularly Tamale, Bole and Wa, with about a 60% probability extending into the night.

The agency has advised the public, especially motorists and outdoor workers, to exercise caution due to reduced visibility in the morning and possible storm activity later in the day.

GMet continues to monitor weather patterns and is expected to issue further updates if conditions change.
