The Department of Meteorology says an increase in rainfall is expected across Sri Lanka from tomorrow (06). 

According to the department, the increase in rainfall is expected as the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), along with an associated low-level atmospheric disturbance, is likely to develop in the vicinity of Sri Lanka. 

The department further said it is closely monitoring the evolution of this system. 

The public is requested to stay attentive to future forecasts and bulletins issued by the Department of Meteorology in this regard. (Newswire)
