In the southern parts of the country, mist and fog patches are set to reduce visibility, with slight rainfall also anticipated in those areas.
Despite the unsettled morning conditions, GMet indicated that brief spells of sunshine are likely to develop across most of the country as the day advances.
However, the agency cautioned that the improved conditions will not be uniform.
Thunderstorms and rain of varying intensities remain likely over parts of the coastal belt, the middle zone, the transition belt and the northern sector as the day progresses.
Residents in affected areas, particularly those travelling through northern Ghana or low-visibility zones in the south, are advised to exercise caution during the morning hours.
