Light to moderate rain in parts of the country as a depression in the Bay of Bengal continues its path north-northwest. Rain is forecast in most areas of Rajshahi, Dhaka, Mymensingh, Khulna, Barisal, Chittagong and Sylhet divisions, and many areas of Rangpur. And it will be heavy over Khulna, Barisal, Chittagong and Dhaka over the next 24 hours. Deep convection is taking place over the northern Bay of Bengal due to the depression along with maximum sustained wind speed of 40-50 kmph within 44km of the depression’s centre.
