The natural beauty of Cox’s Bazar has come alive on a rain-soaked morning following a sudden storm overnight.

After the night’s storm, light rain began at dawn and continued into the morning, bringing relief to residents from the prolonged heat and humid conditions.

According to reports, strong gusty winds and a sudden seasonal storm hit around 3:00am without prior warning, creating panic in the town and surrounding areas. The wind was reportedly stronger in the district’s hilly areas, according to local sources.

A local resident, Nurul Islam, said the storm began suddenly at night, followed by rain in the morning, which brought some relief from the heat.

The rainfall has refreshed the environment, washing dust off trees and bringing coolness to the air. No major damage has been reported so far.

Residents said that while the sudden storm caused brief panic, it also provided much-needed comfort amid intense heat.
