Hence, several spells of showers will fall out in the Western, Sabaragamuwa, Central and North-Western provinces and in the Galle and Matara districts.
Fairly strong winds of about 30-40 KMPH can be anticipated periodically over the Northern, North Central and Eastern provinces.
In the meantime, showers or thundershowers are likely at several places in the marine areas off the coast extending from Puttalam to Matara via Colombo and Galle.
Winds will be south-westerly over the sea area around the island and would strike at 30-40 KMPH.
