The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet) has issued a weather advisory for Thursday, July 30, 2026, warning of thunderstorms, rain and reduced visibility across several parts of the country.

The agency released the morning update covering conditions expected to develop from the early hours through to the evening across Ghana's coastal, middle, transition and northern zones.

Fog and drizzle expected along the coast

According to GMet, slight rain or drizzle is likely over a few coastal areas during the morning hours.

Early morning mist and fog are also anticipated in coastal, forested and mountainous locations, a development the agency warned would lead to reduced visibility for residents and commuters in those areas.
