The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) has forecasted that thunderstorms and dust haze will impact many parts of Nigeria from Sunday through Tuesday.

The agency’s update on Saturday indicated moderate dust haze in northern states such as Katsina, Sokoto, Zamfara, Borno, Kano, Yobe, and Jigawa.

Isolated thunderstorms are expected in Adamawa and Taraba States during the forecast period. The North-Central region will experience partly cloudy mornings and afternoon thunderstorms in the Federal Capital Territory, Plateau, Kogi, Nasarawa, and Benue.

In the South, morning thunderstorms are likely in Lagos, Cross River, Rivers, Bayelsa, and Akwa Ibom, with further thunderstorms spreading later in the day. On Monday, northern Nigeria will mostly have sunny skies, though Taraba and Adamawa may see morning storms that could spread to Kaduna, Bauchi, and Gombe.
