The Nigerian Meteorological Agency, NiMet, has predicted thundery and rainy weather conditions from Thursday to Saturday across the country.

NiMet’s weather outlook which was released on Wednesday in Abuja, forecast isolated thunderstorms over parts of Kebbi, Sokoto, Taraba, Gombe, Borno, Yobe, Kaduna, and Adamawa states during the morning hours.

NiMet further revealed that over the southern region, intermittent rains are expected over parts of Imo, Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu, Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, and Cross River states in the afternoon and evening hours.

The agency also envisaged cloudy skies over the southern region during the morning hours and intermittent rains over parts of the region later in the day.

Later in the afternoon and evening hours, widespread thunderstorms are expected across the northern region.

NiMet advised residents of major cities to avoid flood-prone areas, as there is a high likelihood of urban flooding in major cities due to heavy downpours.

The agency advised the public and airline operators to obtain updated weather reports and forecasts from NiMet for effective planning of their operations.
