The prevailing low-level atmospheric disturbance located to the south-east of Sri Lanka is expected to intensify into a low-pressure area during next 24 hours, the Department of Meteorology warned in a weather advisory issued this evening.
It is likely to move west-northwestwards.
Under the influence of the low pressure area, heavy showers above 100 mm can be expected at some places in Eastern, North-Central and Uva provinces and in Mullaitivu, Vavuniya and Matale districts.
Meanwhile, fairly heavy showers above 75 mm can be expected at some places elsewhere in the island.
