The Department of Meteorology has forecast intermittent showers and thundershowers in several parts of the country today (31), affecting large areas of the island.
According to the forecast, rainfall is expected at times in the Northern, Eastern, Central, North Central, North Western and Uva provinces. In addition, fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 75 mm is likely at isolated locations within the Central, North Western and Uva provinces.
The Met Department also noted that showers or thundershowers may develop in other areas after 2.00 p.m., particularly during the evening hours.
Early morning misty conditions are expected in parts of the Sabaragamuwa and Central provinces, as well as in the Galle and Matara districts, which could reduce visibility.Members of the public have been urged to take necessary safety precautions to reduce potential damage caused by localized strong winds and lightning associated with thundershowers.
