As a mild to moderate heat wave envelops several parts of the country, the Meteorological Office issues a cautionary bulletin suggesting the possibility of its further spread.
According to the bulletin, Rajshahi division and districts including Bagerhat, Kushtia, and Chuadanga are currently experiencing the effects of this heat wave, with potential for wider impact.
Increased moisture incursion contributes to prolonged discomfort, the bulletin highlights.
Additionally, the forecast indicates the likelihood of rain or thunder showers accompanied by temporary gusty or squally winds in Chittagong and Sylhet divisions, with isolated instances of hail.
While the weather remains predominantly dry elsewhere in the country, temporary partly cloudy skies may prevail.
Daytime temperatures are expected to rise by 1-2°C, while nighttime temperatures will likely remain stable across the nation.
The prevailing weather pattern is influenced by a trough of westerly low over Sub-Himalayan West Bengal and surrounding regions, along with seasonal lows over the South Bay.
