The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) has issued a weather forecast predicting thunderstorms and rains across Nigeria from Monday to Wednesday. The agency’s latest outlook, released on Sunday, details a series of weather patterns expected to affect various regions of the country over the coming days.

For Monday, NiMet forecasts morning thunderstorms in several areas, including Kebbi, Katsina, Borno, Bauchi, and Taraba. As the day progresses, these thunderstorms are expected to shift and affect regions such as Zamfara, Taraba, Bauchi, and Kebbi.

Additionally, moderate rainfall is anticipated during the morning hours in Nassarawa, Benue, Abuja, and Niger.
In the afternoon and evening, NiMet predicts moderate thunderstorms with light rain in parts of Niger, Abuja, Nassarawa, Kogi, and Plateau. Meanwhile, Cross River and Akwa Ibom are expected to experience morning rain, with light to moderate rain anticipated later in the day over Ebonyi, Imo, Abia, Anambra, Oyo, Ogun, Cross River, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, and Delta.

On Tuesday, the weather outlook includes morning thunderstorms in Sokoto, Kebbi, and Zamfara. Thunderstorms are expected to develop in Bauchi, Taraba, Zamfara, and Kebbi during the afternoon and evening. The morning will see moderate rainfall in Niger and Kwara states. Later in the day, moderate thunderstorms with rain are forecasted for Plateau, Nassarawa, Benue, and Kogi. The southern region is expected to have cloudy skies in the morning, with intermittent rains over parts of Ebonyi, Abia, Cross River, and Akwa Ibom during the afternoon or evening.

For Wednesday, NiMet forecasts morning thunderstorms in Sokoto, Borno, Katsina, and Kebbi. Thunderstorms are expected to spread to Taraba, Kano, Kaduna, and Zamfara later in the day. The North Central region will experience cloudy conditions in the morning, with thunderstorms expected to develop throughout the region as the day progresses. The southern region is anticipated to remain mostly cloudy in the morning.

By the afternoon and evening, NiMet predicts moderate rain across the entire country. The agency warns that strong winds may precede the rain in areas experiencing thunderstorms, advising the public to take necessary precautions. The forecast highlights a high likelihood of urban flooding in major cities due to heavy downpours. Residents are urged to avoid flood-prone areas and adhere to safety advisories issued by local authorities.

NiMet’s detailed forecast underscores the need for preparedness as various regions will experience significant weather changes over the next few days. The agency’s prediction of thunderstorms and rainfall reflects the dynamic weather patterns characteristic of this time of year. By providing advance notice, NiMet aims to help individuals and communities make informed decisions and take appropriate actions to mitigate potential disruptions caused by adverse weather conditions.

Nigeria will experience a variety of weather patterns from Monday to Wednesday, with thunderstorms and moderate rains expected to affect different regions. NiMet’s forecast includes detailed predictions for morning and afternoon conditions, as well as warnings about possible urban flooding and strong winds. Residents are encouraged to stay informed about the weather and follow safety recommendations to ensure their well-being during this period of unstable weather.
