Daily Mirror reports that the Department of Meteorology warned that an atmospheric disturbance in the southeast Bay of Bengal could have a serious impact on Sri Lanka’s eastern region. In separate reports, Daily Mirror says a low-pressure area could develop there around November 13, while Newsfirst (සිංහල) reports that disturbed conditions may arise around November 11 in the southeast Bay of Bengal and waters near the Andaman Islands.
Ada Derana reports that a possible low-pressure system may affect Sri Lanka from November 15. Hiru News (සිංහල) reports that meteorological officials said the system might intensify into a depression and travel north alongside the eastern coastline. Ada Derana (தமிழ்) describes a possible progression from an atmospheric disturbance to a low-pressure area and then a depression.
Newswire reports that the Department of Meteorology’s Marine Forecasting Division issued a strong-wind and rough-sea warning covering specified parts of the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, effective at 3 p.m. on November 11. Its three-day outlook anticipates winds of 40–50 kmph on the first day, with occasional gusts reaching 60 kmph; for the second day, it gives speeds of 50–60 kmph and gusts reaching 70 kmph. Newswire says rough seas and strong-wind alerts also apply on the third day.
Newswire reports that naval and fishing communities were urged to exercise vigilance as conditions strengthen. Ada Derana reports that an advisory was issued for deep-sea areas before the low-pressure system develops, and Newswire separately reports an amber warning for strong winds and rough seas.
