Fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 75 mm likely in several Sri Lanka provinces

The Department of Meteorology said most parts of Sri Lanka are expected to have showers or thundershowers after 1.00 p.m. today (11). Fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 75 mm is likely at some places in the Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central, Uva and North-Western provinces, and in the Galle, Matara, Anuradhapura and Mannar districts.

Misty conditions may occur at some places in the Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central and Uva provinces during the early hours of the morning.

The general public is advised to take adequate precautions to minimise possible damage caused by temporary localised strong winds and lightning during thundershowers.
