Dhaka experienced heavy rainfall midday, initially raising hopes for relief from a prolonged heatwave. However, the Bangladesh Meteorological Department indicates the oppressive heat is likely to continue. Despite the significant downpour, temperatures remain high due to persistent humidity. Forecasts predict continued rainfall in several divisions including Rangpur, Mymensingh, Barishal, Chattogram, and Sylhet, as well as parts of Rajshahi, Khulna, and Dhaka. The unusual warmth despite the rain is attributed to high moisture levels in the air. Authorities have not issued heat alerts, but residents are advised to stay hydrated and seek shade during peak hours.
