Disturbance Line Approaching Middle and Northern sectors

Middle and Northern sectors

A line of unstable weather conditions extending from the Oti region to the Northern region is expected to develop further and track westwards across the country. This is expected to produce rain of varying intensity with thunder and gisty winds within the Oti, Northern, and Bono East regions early this afternoon. Later in the afternoon into the evening, the Bono, Ashanti, Ahafo and Savannah regions are also expected to experience similar conditions.

Residents in the affected areas should avoid outdoor activities and secure loose items. During the thunderstorm, stay indoors and away from windows, unplug electrical appliances to prevent damage from lightning strikes, and avoid using corded phones or electrical devices connected to outlets. If caught outdoors, seek substantial shelter immediately and never take refuge under trees during lightning activity. Drivers should exercise extreme caution by reducing speed, using headlights for visibility, and avoiding flooded sections of roadway
