The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) has predicted dust haze weather conditions with horizontal visibility range of about three to five kilometres over the central states of the county on Saturday, December 30, 2017.
NiMet’s Weather Outlook by its Central Forecast Office in Abuja on Friday also predicted day and night temperatures in the range of 26 to 36 and 11 to 20 degrees celsius.
The agency predicted that the Southern States would experience hazy conditions over the inland cities with day and night temperatures in the range of 33 to 37 and 18 to 26 degrees celsius.
It also predicted partly cloudy skies over the coastal cities throughout the forecast period.
According to NiMet, Northern States will experience slight dust haze throughout the forecast period with day and night temperatures in the range of 28 to 34 and 12 to 19 degrees celsius.
“Slight dust is expected to be raised which should leave the northern part of the country in slight dust haze.
“The central states are expected to be in dust haze condition with horizontal visibility range of about three to five kilometres.
“Conversely, partly cloudy conditions are expected over the southern cities in the next 24 hours,” NiMet predicted.
