The Department of Meteorology has forecast an increase in rainy conditions across several parts of the country in the coming days starting today (17).
According to the forecast, intermittent showers are expected in the Northern, North Central, Central, Uva, and Eastern provinces, as well as in the Hambantota district. Some areas in the Central, Uva, and Eastern provinces and Polonnaruwa district could experience fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 75 mm.
In other parts of the island, showers or thundershowers are likely to develop at multiple locations after 1.00 p.m., with some areas also receiving rainfall of up to 75 mm.
Misty weather conditions are anticipated during the early morning hours in parts of the North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Central provinces, along with the Galle and Matara districts.
The public has been advised to remain cautious and take necessary safety measures, particularly due to the risk of localized strong winds and lightning associated with thundershowers.
