Showers or thundershowers are expected to occur at several places across Sri Lanka
after 1.00 p.m. today. The affected areas include the Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central,
Uva, North-Central and Eastern provinces, along with the Galle and Matara districts.
These afternoon showers may bring temporary heavy rainfall and occasional lightning.

In addition, morning showers are likely in the coastal areas of the Southern Province
and in the Kalutara and Colombo districts, bringing wet conditions earlier in the
day for these regions. Residents in these areas should be prepared for intermittent
rainfall throughout the day.

Misty conditions can be expected during the early hours of the morning in parts 
of the Central, Sabaragamuwa and Uva provinces, as well as in the Ampara district.
Motorists are advised to exercise caution due to reduced visibility in these areas.

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