More rains are likely to drench Bangladesh in the next 24 hours, with monsoon still being active over the country, according to the weather office.
“Light to moderate rain or thunder showers accompanied by temporary gusty winds is likely to occur at many places over Rangpur, Mymensingh and Sylhet divisions and at a few places over Rajshahi, Dhaka, Khulna, Barisal and Chittagong divisions with moderately heavy to heavy falls at isolated places over the country,” the department said in a forecast on Wednesday.
However, day and night temperatures may rise slightly over the country.
The axis of monsoon trough runs through Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal to Assam across central parts of Bangladesh. One of its associated troughs extends up to the Northwest Bay.
Monsoon is less active over Bangladesh and weak elsewhere over the North Bay.
