Inclement weather likely to continue

Inclement weather, marked by nagging showers, will continue for another three days, the Met Office said yesterday (Wednesday).

Light rain since noon was reported from across the country, including the capital. It made life difficult for commuters, who were unable to find any public transport because of the agitation by students demanding justice for the death of two schoolchildren run over by a speeding bus on Airport Road on Sunday.

The rainfall recorded in the city between 12 noon and 6pm was 20mm.

The forecast for the next 24 hours, beginning at 6pm yesterday, said light to moderate rain/thundershowers, accompanied by temporary gusty winds, are likely in most places of Rajshahi, Rangpur,

Dhaka, Mymensingh, Khulna, Barishal, Chattogram and Sylhet divisions. Moderately heavy to very heavy rainfall is likely at places in Khulna, Barishal, Chattogram and Sylhet divisions.
