The Met Department says, heavy rainfall of about 150mm can be expected in the Uva, Central and Sabaragamuwa Provinces as well as in certain parts of the Eastern Province, caused by a low level atmospheric disturbance over the vicinity of Sri Lanka.

Hundred millimetres of rainfall have also been forecast for the Southern and Western Provinces.

Met Department Director, Anusha Warnasuriya, said, the rainy conditions are expected to temporarily subside by tomorrow and the day after.
