Dry and hazy conditions are expected to persist over most parts of the country with varying intensities.
According to the Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet), Upper East, Upper West, North East, Northern, Savannah, Bono, Ahafo Bono East, Oti, and parts of Ashanti Region are to be affected.
Extreme southern cities, towns, and villages are also expected to experience relaxation in the dry and hazy conditions in the coming days.
This according to the 2022/2023 harmattan season advisory update issued on January 23, 2023, will be caused by a temporal reversal of the upper-level winds region, an incursion of moisture from the sea and other meteorological parameters.
“…..from now till February 2023, localised rainfall or thundery activities are forecasted for the aforementioned areas,” the statement signed by Ag. Director-General, Eric Asuman said.
The agency is also predicting increase both day and night time temperatures across Ghana.
The public is also advised to drink enough water to avoid dehydration, and follow fire safety precautions religiously especially for the people within the northern sector.
