Weather may remain dry with temporarily partly cloudy skies over the country on Wednesday, while a mild cold wave is likely to sweep at places over the northern and western parts, indicating a renewed spread of cold conditions compared to Tuesday, according to the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD). The BMD forecast said a mild cold wave may affect parts of the north and west, suggesting a wider spatial influence than the previous day when the cold wave had eased and remained confined to a few northern districts. The figures underline a sharp thermal contrast between the south-eastern region and the northernmost fringe of the country. On the other hand, Feni's highest temperature of 30°C highlights the relative warmth of the south-eastern region. Proximity to the Bay of Bengal, higher moisture content in the air and greater daytime solar heating continue to keep southern and coastal areas warmer, even when cold conditions intensify in the north.
