I wish I hoped to be a meteorologist when I was a child. What a cushy job!

Critic Roshan Monday, 20 May 2013 12:02 PM

Still the MET department is not sure if the Mahasen had disappeared from Sri Lanka or the rain season has begun, just guessing.

Is it not possible to alert people before the fact?

HiFarzan Monday, 20 May 2013 10:31 AM

When they say "No more rain", it will start to rain. When they say "More rain" it will stop raining. Nature also know that our meteorology department is so funny.
