A brief spell of rain brought some relief to the residents of Dhaka on Wednesday after they suffered from uncomfortable heat for the past few days due to high humidity in the air.
The weather office had forecast that due to the influence of the monsoon, the sky would remain cloudy and there would be rain in various places at different times.
However, due to the humidity in the air, the weather might remain muggy, it said.
Light to moderate rain or thundershowers accompanied by temporary gusty wind were likely in most places of Rangpur, Mymensingh and Sylhet divisions as well as many places of Rajshahi, Dhaka, Khulna, Barisal and Chittagong divisions, with moderately heavy to very heavy falls in places of Rangpur, Mymensingh and Sylhet divisions, the met office said in its latest weather bulletin in the morning.
The Bangladesh Meteorological Department added that a mild heatwave was sweeping across the districts of Madaripur, Pabna, Khulna, Jessore and Chuadanga, noting that it may subside in some places.
