The Department of Meteorology has forecast continued wet weather across several 
parts of Sri Lanka on **29 June 2026**, with showers expected at intervals in the**
Western, Sabaragamuwa and North-Western provinces**, as well as the **Galle, Matara,
Kandy and Nuwara Eliya** districts. Some of these areas are likely to receive **
fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 75 mm**, raising the risk of localized flooding 
in low-lying locations.

Meanwhile, a few showers or thundershowers are expected after 2.00 p.m. in **Uva
Province** and the **Ampara** and **Batticaloa** districts. Residents in these regions
are advised to remain alert for sudden weather changes.

In addition to rainfall, fairly strong winds of **30–40 kmph** are expected at times
over the western slopes of the central hills, as well as the **Northern, North-Central,
North-Western and Southern provinces**, including the **Trincomalee** district. 
The public is urged to take necessary precautions against temporary localized strong
winds and lightning during thundershowers.

### Sea Conditions

Weather conditions at sea are expected to remain unsettled over the next 24 hours.
Showers or thundershowers will occur 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 sea areas from **Kankasanthurai to Pottuvil**
via **Mannar, Colombo, Galle and Hambantota**.

These coastal waters will be rough at times, while other sea areas will remain moderate.
Wave heights of **2.0 to 3.0 metres** are also expected from **Chilaw to Pottuvil**
via **Colombo, Galle and Hambantota**. Fishermen and naval communities are advised
to exercise extreme caution, as strong gusty winds and very rough seas may develop
during thundershowers.
