The Department of Meteorology forecasts continued rainy conditions across several
parts of Sri Lanka on **27 June 2026**, with showers expected at intervals in the
Western, Sabaragamuwa and North-Western provinces, as well as in the districts of
Galle, Matara, Kandy and Nuwara Eliya.

According to the latest weather forecast, showers or thundershowers may also develop
at a few locations in the Uva and Eastern provinces and in the Mullaitivu district
after 2.00 p.m. Residents in these areas are advised to remain alert, as isolated
thunderstorms could bring temporary localized strong winds and lightning.

In addition to rainfall, fairly strong winds of 30–40 kmph are expected at times
over the western slopes of the central hills, the North-Central, North-Western and
Southern provinces, and the Trincomalee district. The public is urged to take necessary
precautions to minimize damage from falling branches, temporary structures and lightning
during adverse weather.

**Sea condition**

Sea conditions around Sri Lanka are expected to remain unsettled over the next 24
hours. Showers or thundershowers are forecast in the sea areas extending from Chilaw
to Matara via Colombo and Galle. South-westerly winds will blow at 30–40 kmph, increasing
up to 50–60 kmph at times in the sea areas from Galle to Pottuvil via Hambantota.

These coastal waters are expected to be rough, while other sea areas around the 
island may become fairly rough at times. Wave heights between 2.0 and 3.0 metres
are likely from Chilaw to Pottuvil via Colombo, Galle and Hambantota. Swell waves
may also cause sea surges along nearshore coastal areas extending from Beruwala 
to Matara via Galle.

Fishermen, naval operators and beachgoers are advised to exercise extreme caution,
while the general public should stay updated with the latest weather advisories 
and avoid unnecessary risks during periods of heavy rain and strong winds.
