    Ghana Weather Today: Rain and thunderstorms forecast for Accra, Kumasi and other Regions

    The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet) has predicted rain and thunderstorms across several parts of the country today, Monday, June 22, 2026, while warning residents to remain vigilant as weather conditions are expected to change throughout the day.

    According to GMet, patches of mist and fog are likely to form over forested and mountainous areas during the early hours of the morning, reducing visibility in some locations.

    Along the coast, mostly cloudy conditions are expected, with the possibility of light rainfall in some areas. However, parts of southern Ghana are forecast to experience brief sunny intervals from mid-morning through to the afternoon.
