Showers, Strong Winds Expected Across Sri Lanka's Western, Sabaragamuwa, North-Western Provinces

The Department of Meteorology in Sri Lanka forecasts several spells of showers in multiple provinces including Western, Sabaragamuwa, North-western, and districts such as Galle, Matara, Kandy, and Nuwara-Eliya, with occasional thundershowers in Uva province and Ampara district. Strong to fairly strong winds ranging from 35 to 50 kmph are expected over the Western slopes of the central hills and various other provinces, prompting public advisories for precautionary measures to minimize damage. The showery conditions are forecast to persist through late September 2025, with some areas potentially experiencing heavy rainfall exceeding 100 mm. Meanwhile, Bangladesh's Meteorological Department predicts light to moderate rain or thunder showers with gusty winds across many parts of the country, including Khulna, Barishal, and Chattogram divisions, where moderately heavy to heavy rainfall is expected. The monsoon remains moderate to strong over the North Bay, although less active over Bangladesh itself. These weather patterns emphasize the need for vigilance and preparedness in both countries to mitigate the impact of adverse weather conditions.
