Showery weather over Northern and Eastern provinces is expected to continue further, stated the Department of Meteorology.
Showers or thundershowers will occur at times in the Northern, Eastern, North-Central, Uva and Central provinces. Heavy showers above 100mm can be expected at some places in these provinces as well.
Showers or thundershowers will occur at several places elsewhere after 1.00 p.m. Fairly heavy showers above 75 mm can be expected at some places.
However, showers may occur in the Southern coastal areas during the morning too.
Wind speed can increase up to (40-50) kmph at times over Northern and North-Central provinces.
General public is kindly requested to take adequate precautions to minimize damages caused by temporary localized strong winds and lightning during thundershowers.
