The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet) has issued a weather warning cautioning the public about heavy rain and thunderstorms expected to hit several parts of the country, particularly within the middle and transition belts.
According to the agency, a weak rainstorm currently gaining intensity is producing thunderstorms with heavy rain over Wenchi, Sunyani, Nsoatre, Kumawu, and Dadieso and their surrounding areas.
The storm, GMet noted, is expected to expand further westwards, affecting more areas in the Bono, Bono East, Ahafo, Ashanti, and Eastern regions. Parts of the Western North, Central, and Western regions are also likely to experience rainfall later this morning.
GMet further cautioned that the developing storm will be accompanied by moderate to strong winds, urging residents in affected areas to take necessary precautions, especially those living in flood-prone communities.
Meanwhile, areas along the coastal belt may experience isolated thunderstorms or rain amid sunny intervals, while the northern sector remains mostly sunny throughout the day.
The state of the sea is expected to be rough, posing potential risks for marine activities.
