Abstract This paper deals with the general meteorology of Nigeria and adjacent territory. Part I describes the air masses and prevailing winds and the characteristic weather of four weather zones. Part II describes dust haze and just storms which occur and discusses the question of forecasting the onset and clearance of dust haze. Part III deals with instability phenomena in the form disturbance lines and local thunderstorms; a theory of their mechanism is put forward which agrees well with observed phenomena.
