Weather Of Galle Sri Lanka Tomorrow

A hot, humid and cloudy day in Galle will witness the temperature ranging between 29-31 degree. Needless to say that it will feel much more hotter than what the mercury is being predicted at.

As far as the chances of rain are concerned, reliable weather portal AccuWeather predicts a rain probability just above 30% for a large part of the playing hours on Sunday. It is worth of a mention that the first two sessions of the day will be conducted with a rain probability in the 30s.

However, it will only be after 04:00 PM (local time) that this criteria will jump into the 40s for the first time on Day 1. As a result, players, fans and most importantly, the ground staff, should be prepared for an interruption in the evening session.

Taking into consideration how there’s a tendency among concerned individuals to cover the whole ground in Sri Lanka, one doesn’t expect rain to do a lot of damage as far as the outfield is concerned.
