Heavy rains continued to lash the financial capital for the third day today.  

However, there was no water logging and road and rail traffic was not disrupted. Flights were delayed by a few minutes due to poor visibility at the airport.  

Rainfall recorded in the last 22 hours since 8.30 am yesterday was 240.1 mm, according to the weather office here.  

Fishermen have been advised not to venture into the sea for the next 24 hours as the sea is rough to very rough with southwesterly to westerly waves, the Met office said.  

The weather office has forecasted frequent spells of rain or thundershowers with heavy to very heavy rain in parts of the city and suburbs. Strong gusty winds are also likely.
