Showery weather will continue across Sri Lanka as a low-level atmospheric disturbance
near the island is expected to develop into a low-pressure area around 11 May. As
a result, unsettled weather conditions are likely to persist over the next few days,
bringing widespread rain and thunderstorms.

According to the forecast, showers or thundershowers will occur in most parts of
the country, with cloudy skies prevailing throughout the day. Heavy rainfall exceeding
100 mm is likely at some locations in the Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central, Southern,
Uva, North-Western and Northern provinces, as well as in the Anuradhapura District.

Residents are strongly advised to take precautions against localized strong winds,
lightning, and possible flooding during intense thundershowers.
