As the atmospheric disturbance is moving away from the island, thundershowers will be reduced, the Department of Meteorology said. However, showers or thundershowers are expected to occur at several places in the island during the afternoon.
Showers will occur at several places in the coastal areas extending from Kankasanturai to Galle via Mannar and Colombo during the morning too, the department said.
There may be temporary localized strong winds during thundershowers.
Intermittent showers or thundershowers will occur in deep and shallow sea areas off the East coast. Showers or thundershowers will occur at several places in other sea areas around the island, too.
Winds will be North-westerly or westerly and the speed will be 20-40 kmph.
Due to the active cloudiness to the East of Sri Lanka in the Bay of Bengal, sudden increase of wind speed over the sea areas off the coast extending from Jaffna to Galle via Trincomalie and Batticaloa is possible.
Therefore the possibility of sudden roughness of the above said sea areas are high. Other sea areas may also be temporary rough during thundershowers, the Met Department said.
