According to weather forecasts, showers or thundershowers will occur frequently in the Western and Sabaragamuwa provinces, as well as in Galle, Matara, Kandy, and Nuwara-Eliya districts. Some areas, particularly in Rathnapura, Kaluthara, Galle, and Matara districts, may experience heavy rainfall of around 100 mm.
Elsewhere in the country, showers or thundershowers are expected to occur during the evening or night, with fairly heavy rainfall above 75 mm anticipated in parts of the Northern, North-central, Eastern, and Central provinces.
