7-day forecast

where the models agree, and where they split

Heading to Colombo? Colombo, Sri Lanka, sits at 6.9°N in a tropical climate zone. It sits in the tropics, so it stays warm all year — the question on any trip is the wet season versus the dry season, not hot versus cold. Before you lock in outdoor plans, compare how the three global models — European (ECMWF), American (GFS) and German (ICON) — forecast Colombo right now. Where they agree you can trust it; the days they split are exactly when a single weather app is least reliable. For a city break, the rain hours below tell you which days to plan indoors.
