A spell of sunny days is expected to soften winter's grip across Bangladesh after a week of biting cold accentuated by a shroud of dense fog. Meteorologist Hafizur Rahman said that the sun was shining across the country, except in Rangpur, which remained engulfed in dense fog with no prospects of rain. While daytime temperatures might rise, night-time temperatures are expected to drop, slightly intensifying the winter chill. Over the past 24 hours, the country's highest temperature was recorded at 27 degrees Celsius in Cox's Bazar, and the lowest at 9.7 degrees Celsius in Tetulia. In Dhaka, the minimum and maximum temperatures were recorded at 15 degrees Celsius and 23.1 degrees Celcius.
