According to the Department of Meteorology, the atmospheric disturbance is moving away from the island, but due to the convergence of wind, showers will occur at times over northern, north-central, eastern and Uva provinces and heavy rainfall of about 100 mm is likely at some places.

Thundershowers will develop elsewhere, particularly after 2.00 p.m.

There may be temporary localized strong winds during thundershowers. General public is kindly requested to take adequate precautions to minimize damages caused by lightning activity.
