Radar coverage depends on the provider. Blank areas do not necessarily mean dry weather.
This forecast describes one location. Temperature, rainfall and wind may differ across the country. Zoom in on the map to explore the area you are interested in.
Use this page to explore the weather in Nigeria. The forecast point is Abuja; its temperature, rain and wind describe that location, not an average for the country. The regional background below explains what to consider when comparing the map with your destination. It is not a country climate classification or a forecast for a particular season.
Africa: rainfall seasons, latitude and elevation
There is no single African season
Africa extends north and south of the equator and includes coasts, highlands, deserts and humid tropical regions. The timing and importance of rainy periods vary by location; a simple summer or winter label is often insufficient. Some areas have more than one rainfall peak during the year. Elevation and proximity to the ocean also matter, so neither a country's latitude nor one capital forecast describes all its conditions.
Match the map to the question
Start by checking whether the selected layer shows observed precipitation, cloud imagery or a model forecast. Radar coverage is uneven, and an empty area may indicate missing data rather than dry weather. Satellite cloud patterns can provide a wider view but are not a direct measurement of rainfall at your location. For rain planning, compare the forecast time interval as well as the amount; a daily total does not say when a shower will occur.
Use local seasonal information
For a future visit, consult climate information for the specific region and month instead of applying a continent-wide wet-season calendar. For today's plans, use updated local forecasts and official bulletins. Warning thresholds, terminology and delivery channels differ between services. Check the issuing authority, the area covered and the latest update, especially when travelling between coast, inland areas and higher ground.
