Several spells of showers will occur in the North-Central, Eastern and Uva provinces and in Hambantota and Matale districts today (14), says the Met Department.

Showers or thundershowers will occur at several places in the Western and Sabaragamuwa provinces and in the Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Galle and Matara districts in the evening or night.

Fairly heavy showers of more than 75mm can be expected at some places in the Ratnapura, Nuwara Eliya, Kaluthara, Galle and Matara districts.

Misty conditions can be expected at some places in the Western, Sabaragamuwa and Central provinces and in the Galle and Matara districts in the morning.

The Department requests the public to take adequate precautions to minimize damages caused by temporary localized strong winds and lightning during thundershowers.
