Mr Padi said for the rest of the week, the north could have occasional, isolated thundery activities.<\/p>\n

He said southern Ghana would also have isolated or scattered thundery activities.<\/p>\n

He said there would be hazy conditions over the country\u2019s mid-portion, such as the Brong-Ahafo, Ashanti and parts of the Eastern Region.<\/p>\n

The senior meteorologist said within the haze, there could be activities that would precipitate rainfall.<\/p>\n

He said the effects of the harmattan season were expected to intensify from\u00a0December 2016 to January 2017.<\/p>\n
