A new low-pressure area is likely to form over the southeast Bay of Bengal and adjoining areas around November 13, raising the possibility of rain and thundershowers across different parts of Bangladesh.

The Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) shared the forecast in its weather bulletin issued on Wednesday (November 12), covering the 24 hours from 6:00pm.

According to the BMD, the seasonal low currently lies over the south Bay of Bengal, with an extension reaching the northeast Bay of Bengal.

Rain or thundershowers may occur at one or two places in all eight divisions- Rangpur, Rajshahi, Dhaka, Mymensingh, Khulna, Barishal, Chattogram and Sylhet—during the next 24 hours.

Some areas may experience multiple spells of rainfall, with cloudy skies and occasional thunderstorms throughout the day.

The forecast also said night temperatures may drop slightly across the country, while daytime temperatures are likely to remain largely unchanged.

Meanwhile, winds in Dhaka are blowing from the west or northwest at a speed of 8–12 kilometres per hour. Relative humidity in the capital was recorded at 64 percent at 6:00pm on Wednesday.
