The maritime ports of Chattogram, Cox’s Bazar, Mongla and Payra have been advised to lower signal as the low over north odisha and adjoining area weakened further and merged with the monsoon axis, a Met bulletin said on Wednesday.
“The low pressure area over north Odisha and adjoining area merged with the monsoon axis… The axis of monsoon trough runs through Rajastan, Hariyana, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha and extends to Assam across Gangetic West Bengal and southern part of Bangladesh,” the bulletin added. Squally weather is unlikely over the maritime ports, North Bay and adjoining coastal area of Bangladesh. But all fishing boats and trawlers over North Bay have been advised to proceed with caution till Wednesday evening.
