In a span of 24 hours from 8:30 am, Ratmalana received 56.2mm of rain, while Colombo got 15.1mm, Galle 1.1mm and Kurunegala received 18.9mm of rain.
These rains occurred due to the cyclonic circulation over southwest parts of Sri Lanka and adjoining oceanic areas. This system is expected to persist over the region for the next 48 hours.
Due to accumulation of this air mass, light to moderate rain will continue over southwestern parts of Sri Lanka.
As time progresses, these rainfall activities will decrease near the coastal parts of the Sri Lanka. Day temperatures will remain between 31°C to 32°C and central parts of the country will experience maximum temperature between 34°C to 35°C. While remaining parts will have maximum temperatures between 32°C to 33°C.
During the next 48 hours, these rainfall conditions will persist over southwest parts of Sri Lanka. Thereafter dry weather conditions are expected to continue.
Southern parts of the country will experience cloudy sky conditions and northern parts will see partly cloudy sky. Barring, southwest parts of the country, remaining parts will experience dry and warm day with humid weather conditions.
