Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet), said the reason for the rising heatwave in the month of March is caused by NorthWestern and South Western air masses from the Sahara and Atlantic Ocean which generates so much heat during the transition month period of March-April.

This was disclosed by Prof. Sani Mashi, the Director-General of NiMET in an interview on Friday, the weather boss said the air masses cause so much heat and the discomfort is expected for Nigerians.

”This period is hence called the heat wave,” he said. “Heatwave in Nigeria is caused by transition between moist and wet air mass blowing over the country along a southwestern direction from the Atlantic Ocean.
