There is no possibility of immediate relief from the scorching heat in the country as the weather department had said rain is unlikely within three days.
Kazi Jebunnesa, assistant meteorologist at the Bangladesh Metrological Department (BMD), told UNB that there is no possibility of rain within the next three days and the ongoing heat wave will continue.
BMD on Sunday forecasted that a severe heatwave will continue in parts of the country like the past few days.
The heat wave is sweeping Dhaka, Faridpur, Manikgonj, Pabna, Bagerhat, Jessore, Chuadanga and Kushtia districts and mild to moderate heat wave is sweeping elsewhere over the country and it may continue.
The season's highest temperature of the country was recorded in Chuadanga at 42.2°C while the lowest temperature was in Syedpur at 19.4°C on Saturday.
Day temperature may remain nearly unchanged and night temperature may rise slightly over the country, said a Met Office bulletin.
The weather may remain dry with temporary partly cloudy sky over the country.
