## Sri Lanka Sea Weather Advisory: Fairly Rough Seas and Gusty Winds Expected in Several Coastal Areas

Issued at 05.30 a.m. on 27 December 2025
Sea conditions around Sri Lanka are expected
to be **moderate to fairly rough** during the next 24 hours, with **showers, thundershowers,
and strong winds affecting several coastal sea areas**, according to the Department
of Meteorology.

Showers may occur at a few places in the sea areas off the coast extending from **
Kankasanthurai to Pottuvil via Trincomalee**, particularly during the daytime. Meanwhile,**
showers or thundershowers** are likely to develop in the **sea areas from Kalutara
to Hambantota via Galle** during the **evening or night hours**.

Winds will be **north-easterly**, with speeds generally ranging between **30 and
40 kmph**. However, wind speeds may **increase up to 45–50 kmph at times** in the
sea areas off the coast extending from **Colombo to Mullaittivu via Puttalam and
Kankasanthurai**, as well as from **Matara to Pottuvil via Hambantota**.

Due to the strengthening winds, the **sea areas from Colombo to Mullaittivu via 
Puttalam and Kankasanthurai, and from Matara to Pottuvil via Hambantota**, are expected
to be **fairly rough at times**. Sea conditions in other areas around the island
will remain **moderate**.

The Department of Meteorology advises **fishermen and naval communities** to remain**
vigilant**, closely monitor future weather updates, and **exercise caution when 
venturing into these sea areas**, especially where rough seas and strong winds are
expected.
