Colombo, August 27 (Daily Mirror) -  The sun will be directly over Sri Lanka from August 28 to September 06 because of its movement southward, the Meteorological Department said. 

Accordingly, the sun will be directly overhead at Delft Island, Pooneryn, Thadduvankoddi and Chundikkulam at around 12:11 p.m. tomorrow (28).

In light of the rising temperatures, health experts advise people to avoid unnecessary exposure to sunlight and to drink plenty of fluids frequently in light of the comparative increase in the temperature in the country.

“Overexposure to the sun may lead to complexities on certain people and thus it is better for everyone to stay away from the sun,” an expert said.
