Signal No three for maritime ports

The maritime ports of Chattogram, Cox's Bazar, Mongla and Payra have been advised to keep hoisted local cautionary signal No 3 as squally weather is likely to affect those, reports UNB.

Steep pressure gradient lies over the North Bay and under its influence, squally weather is likely to affect the maritime ports, North Bay and adjoining coastal areas of Bangladesh, a Met office said on Saturday.

Fishing boats and trawlers over the North Bay have been advised to remain close to the coast and proceed with caution until further notice.
