Galle District

Satellite rain against each division's own record, updated Sat 26 Sept, 11:44

Has Galle district had unusual rain in the last 3 days?

Not unusual

No. In the 3 days to Sat 26 Sept, 05:30, satellite rainfall was not in the wettest 1% of 3-day periods since 2000 for any DS division in Galle district. 22 of its 22 DS divisions had rain among their wettest 10% of 3-day periods, which is common. That is not a statement about safety; local downpours can be missed.
