Alright, so, like, in Chittagong, there was this crazy rainfall of 29 millimeters from 12 PM to 6 PM, according to the weather office in Ambagan. At the same time, Patenga also had a record-breaking 14 millimeters of rainfall. This info was confirmed by the weather office’s forecaster, Mr. Ismail Bhuinya.
Due to the rainfall, there was some flooding in the low-lying areas, like the GEC Circle. The roads in several areas got flooded with water, and the workers from the City Corporation’s cleaning department were seen quickly clearing the garbage to prevent waterlogging. Still, unfortunately, pedestrians, commuters, and street food vendors had to face the consequences.
Mr. Bhuinya mentioned that there was heavier rainfall in the main city area on Thursday. Deep convective clouds are forming over the Northern Bay of Bengal and adjacent areas. Strong winds from the Northern Bay of Bengal can lead to rough seas over Chittagong, Cox’s Bazar, Mongla, and Payra seaports, prompting a third-level caution for locals. Also, caution is advised for fishing boats and trawlers in the North Bay of Bengal, as they should not venture out until further notice.
So, like, in conclusion, this whole rain situation is causing some chaos in Chittagong. Stay safe, don’t go out to sea, and watch out for those crazy winds. Who knows what could happen next, right?
