Low over Bay intensifies


Tuesday's low over west-central Bay and adjoining northwest Bay concentrated into a well-marked low over the same area.

It is likely to intensify further into a monsoon depression and move in a northwesterly direction, said a special bulletin of Met Office.

Under its influence, deep convection is taking place over north Bay. Squally weather may affect the ports, it said.

Maritime ports of Chittagong, Cox's Bazar and Mongla have been

advised to hoist local cautionary signal number three.

All fishing boats and trawlers over north Bay have been advised to come close to the coast and proceed with caution till further notice.
