Strong winds and rough sea: Advisory issues

04 Oct 2020

By Sarah Hannan The Meteorology Department has requested that fishing and naval communities be vigilant as wind speed could increase up to 60-70 kmph at times in the deep and shallow sea areas off the coasts extending from Matara to Pottuvil via Hambantota and from Kankasanturai to Trincomalee. The Department further noted that the sea areas off the coasts extending from Puttalam to Kankasanturai via Mannar and from Trincomalee to Batticaloa can be fairly rough at times with wind speeds reaching 50-55 kmph. The wind speed can increase up to 50 kmph at times in the other sea areas around the island. A few showers might occur in the sea area extending from Colombo to Matara via Galle, and mainly fair weather will prevail in the other sea areas around the island. Winds will be south-westerly in the sea areas around the island and the wind speed will be 30-40 kmph. Few showers in the Western, Sabaragamuwa, and Central Provinces and in the Galle and Matara Districts are to be expected with mainly fair weather prevailing elsewhere in the island. Fairly strong gusty winds of about 40-50 kmph can be expected in the Northern, North Central, North Western, and Southern Provinces; the Nuwara Eliya and Trincomalee Districts; and in the western slopes of the Central Hills.
