Heat recedes at places across country

After the scorching hot weather over the last week, the situation is ameliorating gradually at different regions of the country.According to met officials, rain or thunder showers accompanied by temporary gusty or squally wind is likely to occur at many places over Sylhet division and at one or two places over Rajshahi, Rangpur, Dhaka and Chittagong divisions.

Hail storms with heavy rainfall are also expected at places in Sylhet division in the next 24-hour, said sources at the met office.

However, mild heat wave is sweeping over the regions of Rajshahi, Pabna, Jessore and Kushtia and it may continue.

Earlier in last week, high temperature day and night, warm sunshine and the presence of heat wave made life miserable, particularly for the working class people.
