Showers or thundershowers will occur at times in the Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central and North-western provinces and in Galle and Matara Districts. Heavy showers above 100 mm are likely at some places in the above areas.

Several spells of showers may occur in the North-central province and Mannar district.

Strong winds of about (40-50) kmph can be expected at times over the Western slopes of the Central hills, North-central and North-western provinces and in Trincomalee, Hambantota and Matale Districts.

The general public is kindly requested to take adequate precautions to minimize damage caused by temporary localized strong winds and lightning during thundershowers.
