A low-level atmospheric disturbance in the vicinity of Sri Lanka is expected to 
significantly influence weather conditions (22 February 2026), bringing widespread
showers and thundershowers across many parts of the island. Authorities urge the
public to remain vigilant, particularly in areas forecast to receive intense rainfall.

Heavy rainfall exceeding 100 mm is likely at some locations in the Central, Uva 
and Sabaragamuwa provinces, as well as in the Ampara, Batticaloa and Polonnaruwa
districts. In addition, fairly heavy falls above 75 mm are expected at some places
in other parts of the country. Such rainfall may lead to localized flooding, landslides
in hilly areas, and temporary disruptions to transport and daily activities. Residents
in vulnerable areas are strongly advised to take adequate precautions to minimize
potential damages caused by heavy rain, strong winds and lightning associated with
thundershowers.

evening hours.

Misty conditions can be expected during the early morning in parts of the Central
and Sabaragamuwa provinces and in the Galle, Matara and Kalutara districts, reducing
visibility for motorists.

In the sea areas around the island during the next 24 hours, showers or thundershowers
will occur at times off the coast from Galle to Trincomalee via Hambantota and Batticaloa.
Winds will be north-westerly to northerly from Mullaittivu to Colombo via Kankasanthurai
and Puttalam, and variable elsewhere, with speeds of 20–30 kmph. Sea conditions 
will be moderate; however, temporarily strong gusty winds and very rough seas may
develop during thundershowers.
