A low-pressure system formed over the southeastern Bay of Bengal and adjoining areas has intensified into a well-marked low-pressure area, raising the possibility of deteriorating weather conditions at sea.
Fishing boats and trawlers operating in the North Bay have been advised to remain cautious and stay close to the coast.
The Bangladesh Meteorological Department’s Storm Warning Centre issued the special warning on Saturday.
According to the warning, the system had intensified into a well-marked low-pressure area by 6am Saturday and was still positioned over the southeastern Bay and adjoining areas.
The system may move further northwest and intensify further, the weather department said.
The Cox’s Bazar Meteorological Office is also closely monitoring the weather situation along the coastal area.
The weather department advised all fishing boats and trawlers currently operating in the North Bay to remain close to the coast and navigate cautiously until further notice.
They have also been advised not to venture into the deep sea.
