An employee of the Colombo Municipal Council is doing his duties in the rain in Colombo, Sri Lanka on October 14, 2022. The Department of Meteorology in its latest weather forecast said cloudy skies were expected over most parts of the country as the low-level atmospheric disturbance still persisted in the vicinity of the country. On early Friday, several roads in the capital, Colombo, were left inundated by heavy rains, while the Department of Meteorology said rains of above 100 mm were expected into the weekend. A flood and landslide warning was also issued in several districts, and those residing in low-lying areas were informed to move to higher ground. The DMC said that the armed forces were on standby to assist in rescue missions if the situation worsened.

A view of the Po rivers near "Ponte Della Becca" a bridge on the confluence of the Ticino and Po rivers, near Pavia. The situation of the Ticino stream in the Pavia area, a tributary of the Po, suffers from an extreme reduction in water flow due to drought. The very hot days and the lack of rainfall are creating increasing difficulties for farmers and ranchers. The lack of water in the Po river basin was not found mitigated by the weak spring rains. After a consistent period of drought, the Po river and its basin have a water flow rate of less than half the normal. Long-term forecasts do not indicate that in the short term the weather will change with persistent precipitation. Drought is not an unusual phenomenon, but the frequency with which it recurs in recent years is also becoming worrying of the impacts it has on animals, flora, and agricultural activities.
