The Ghana Meteorological (GMA) Authority, on Thursday, warned of more rains as an observed thunderstorm is heading towards the country from Benin.
The GMA said the southern half of Ghana would continue to experience scattered thunderstorms and rain showers.
Mr. Michael Padi, a Senior Meteorologist at the GMA at the Kotoka International Airport, told the Ghana News Agency, in an interview.
He said the present weather determinants, meteorologically termed “weather systems," generated a lot of moisture into the atmosphere, which equally resulted in rainfall.
Touching on temperatures for the week, he said the Northern sector of the country would have maximum temperatures of 40 Degrees Celsius and a minimum of 27 Degrees Celsius.
The middle sector would have a maximum of 34 Degrees Celcius and a minimum of 24 Degrees Celcius, whilst the Coastal Region of the country would have 33 Degrees Celcius as maximum and 25 Degrees Celcius as minimum temperatures.
The GMA explained that the rains would be more intense from now till the second week of June.
Group Captain Stephen Komla, the GMA Director-General, told reporters that the rainy trend would continue for the next two days and perhaps extend into the second week of June.
He said the rains would be more intense from now till the second week of June.
“It is expected that the Southern part of the country will definitely experience some more heavy rains,” he predicted.
Capt. Komla said the major rainy season of Ghana was between May and July followed by that of September to October, which was the minor rainy season.
