### **Rough Seas and Strong Winds**

Showers are also expected in the sea areas extending from Chilaw to Matara via Colombo
and Galle during the next 24 hours. South-westerly winds will prevail over the surrounding
seas, with wind speeds of 30–40 kmph.

Wind speeds may increase up to 50–60 kmph at times in the sea areas extending from
Kankasanthurai to Puttalam via Mannar and from Matara to Pottuvil via Hambantota.
These areas will therefore experience rough sea conditions.

The wave height may increase to around 2.0–3.0 metres in the sea areas extending
from Chilaw to Pottuvil via Colombo, Galle and Matara. These conditions could affect
marine activities, particularly along the western and southern coastal waters.

There is also a possibility of **sea water inundation in nearshore areas from Beruwala
to Matara via Galle**. Naval and fishing communities operating in the affected sea
areas, together with coastal communities living in the identified nearshore areas,
are advised to remain vigilant and follow the latest weather information.

Temporarily strong gusty winds and very rough seas may occur during thundershowers,
requiring extra caution from those engaged in fishing, boating and other marine 
activities.
