Panchagarh: The northern district of Panchagarh continued to record the lowest temperature in the coun-try for the sixth consecutive day on Wednesday, though rising daytime temperatures have eased the se-verity of winter conditions.
According to the Tentulia Meteorological Observatory, the temperature dropped to 8 degrees Celsius at 9:00 am on Wednesday, marking the lowest temperature recorded nationwide. On Wednesday, the tem-perature stood slightly higher at 8.5 degrees Celsius at the same time.
Despite the chilly mornings, daytime temperatures have increased significantly. On Tuesday, the maxi-mum temperature reached 27 degrees Celsius, reducing the overall impact of the cold on daily life.
In recent days, temperatures recorded at 9:00 am were 8.4 degrees Celsius on Monday, 7.3 degrees on Sunday, 8.3 degrees on Saturday, and 6.8 degrees on Friday.
The Meteorological Office classifies temperatures between 6.1 and 8 degrees Celsius as a moderate cold wave. Accordingly, a moderate cold wave is currently affecting the Panchagarh region.
Residents have been experiencing intensified cold during nighttime, with dense fog covering roads until morning. However, the rise in daytime temperatures over the past few days has brought some relief, as sunlight becomes visible soon after the fog clears.
