With cyclone Fani weakening further into a well-marked low and finally becoming unimportant, the meteorological authority says there may be an increase in overall temperature across Bangladesh.
Temperature may increase by 2-5° Celsius during day and by 1-3° Celsius at night across the country, the Meteorological Department said in a forecast for 24 hours starting at 9:00am on Sunday.
In Dhaka division, temperature is likely to go up to 32 degree Celsius, it said, adding that the outlook for next 72 hours is: temperature may increase further.
Rain/thunder showers accompanied by temporary gusty wind are likely to occur at one or two places over Mymensingh & Sylhet divisions. Weather may remain mainly dry with temporary partly cloudy sky elsewhere over the country, the Met office said.
At least 12 people died in storms caused by cyclone Fani in two days from Friday to Saturday, the day when it finally started cutting its path through the country, though in a much weaker form.
Peripherals effects of the very severe cyclonic storm Fani such as rains and gusty winds resulted in a dip in the summer temperature - a relief for people without rains for weeks.
There was huge preparations on behalf of the government to minimise the losses of lives from the cyclone and the disaster-post situation, taking in view the very severe form of cyclone Fani.
People around the country, however, breathed a sigh of relief as fears of a major disaster has gone away with the cyclone losing its intensity significantly well before entering the country on Friday morning.
Moving over the country with wind speeds of up to 60kmph, the cyclone took around 10 hours to cross over Khulna and Rajshahi regions before sailing towards Assam of India.
