Showers or thundershowers are expected to occur in most parts of Sri Lanka after
1.00 p.m. today, bringing widespread rainfall across the island. According to the
forecast, fairly heavy falls exceeding 50 mm are likely at some places in the Sabaragamuwa,
Central, and North-Central provinces, as well as in the Badulla district. Residents
in these areas are advised to remain cautious as intense showers may lead to localized
flooding or disruptions.

In addition, morning showers are likely in the coastal areas of the Southern Province
and in the Kalutara and Colombo districts. Misty conditions can also be expected
during the early hours in parts of the Central, Sabaragamuwa, North-Central, and
Uva provinces, which may reduce visibility for motorists.

The general public is kindly requested to take adequate precautions to minimize 
damages caused by temporary localized strong winds and lightning during thundershowers.
