Event Description

A rainstorm currently observed over Ghana's southeastern border is producing cloudiness and varying rainfall over Keta, Aflao, Anloga, and surrounding areas. The storm is expected to drift westward this morning, spreading across the Volta, Eastern, and Greater Accra regions with rain of varying intensity, thunder, and occasional strong winds. Tema, Accra, Madina, Koforidua, Somanya, and surroundings are likely to be affected between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., while the Ashanti, Central, and Western regions can expect similar conditions in the afternoon between 12 p.m. and 5 p.m

Instructions
Residents in the affected areas are advised to stay indoors where possible, secure loose objects that could be displaced by strong winds, and avoid seeking shelter under trees or near electrical installations during thunder and lightning. Motorists should exercise caution on the roads due to reduced visibility. Keep following the Ghana Meteorological agency for updates.
