# Heavy Showers Above 75 mm Expected in Several Areas

Sri Lanka is expected to experience widespread showers and thundershowers on Friday,
06 November 2026, with fairly heavy rainfall forecast in several provinces and districts.

Showers or thundershowers will occur in the Southern and Eastern provinces and in
the Mullaittivu district. Meanwhile, several areas across the rest of the island
are also expected to experience showers or thundershowers after 1.00 p.m.

Fairly heavy rainfall exceeding 75 mm is likely at some places in the Western, Sabaragamuwa
and North-Western provinces, as well as in the Galle, Matara, Kandy and Nuwara Eliya
districts. Residents in these areas are advised to remain alert and take necessary
precautions against possible weather-related impacts.

Misty conditions can be expected in some areas of the Sabaragamuwa, Central and 
Uva provinces during the early morning hours. Motorists should exercise caution 
due to reduced visibility.

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