Adverse weather

The Meteorology department warned of adverse weather condition with strong winds due to activation of South-west monsoon over Sri Lanka. 
The Meteorology Department requested the fishermen and the naval personnel to be vigilant when venturing into the sea as the seas off the island will be rough. The Department said the deep and shallow sea areas off the coast extending from Mannar to Pottuvil via Colombo and Galle will be rough with strong southwesterly wind up to 80kmp/h for the next 24 hours. 





Due to the strong winds along the southern coast, train services along the coastal line have been limited to Hikkaduwa. 
Occasional showers are in the forecast for Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central and Southern provinces. Showers may extend to Puttalam and Kurunegala districts too.
