A low-pressure area has formed over the Equatorial Indian Ocean and the adjoining southeast Bay of Bengal. It is likely to move west-northwestwards and intensify, according to the latest Met Office bulletin. Meanwhile, the ridge of the sub-continental high extends up to Bihar and adjoining areas, influencing the prevailing weather pattern over Bangladesh. The weather may remain mainly dry with a temporary partly cloudy sky over the country. Night and day temperatures may rise slightly across Bangladesh.
