The Department of Meteorology says that showers are expected at intervals in the Northern, North-Central and Eastern provinces, as well as in the Matale and Nuwara Eliya districts today (01).
According to the forecast, fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 50 millimeters may occur at isolated locations in the Northern Province and in the Trincomalee and Batticaloa districts.
Several rounds of showers are also anticipated in the Uva and North-Western provinces, while other parts of the island may experience showers or thundershowers after 2.00 p.m. Heavy rainfall above 50 millimeters is possible in some of these areas as well.
Meanwhile, misty conditions are expected during the early morning hours in parts of the Western, Sabaragamuwa and Central provinces, along with the Galle and Matara districts.
The Meteorology Department urges the general public to take necessary precautions to reduce potential damage caused by localized strong winds and lightning associated with thundershowers.
