Afternoon conditions across Ghana

GMet warned that a few locations within those areas are likely to experience thunderstorms or rainfall from the late afternoon into the evening hours.

What Ghanaians should expect

The forecast presents a mixed picture for different parts of the country. Those in coastal and forested areas should exercise caution during the early hours due to reduced visibility caused by fog, particularly on the roads.

Meanwhile, communities in the middle belt and northern regions face the prospect of disruptive rainfall later in the day, which could affect travel and outdoor activities.

GMet regularly issues weather advisories to help Ghanaians plan around changing meteorological conditions, especially during periods when rainfall patterns are active across multiple zones of the country.
