NiMet also indicated that on Sunday, parts of Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta states may experience localised morning thunderstorms accompanied by light rainfall. Later in the day, isolated thunderstorms are expected in Rivers, Delta, Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Bayelsa states.
For Monday, the agency forecast continued sunshine across the northern region and hazy conditions in the North-Central zone. Southern states are expected to have cloudy skies in the morning, with isolated thunderstorms developing later in the day.
By Tuesday, sunny and hazy conditions are expected to persist in the North and North-Central regions, while the southern part of the country will experience cloudy mornings followed by isolated thunderstorms with moderate rainfall.
