Conditions in this part of the country will begin on a damp and hazy note before shifting gradually through the day.

Cloudy evening expected nationwide

Away from the storm-prone north and the misty south, broader parts of Ghana will contend with overcast skies throughout the day.

GMet advises Ghanaians to stay informed and take necessary precautions, particularly those travelling through the northern regions, where thunderstorm activity could pose risks to road safety and outdoor activities.
