On Saturday, Tetulia in the Panchagarh district recorded the lowest temperature in the nation for the second day in a row at 7.2 degrees Celsius. A mild to moderate cold wave is now affecting several regions of the nation.

"A mild to moderate cold wave is sweeping over Rangpur and Rajshahi divisions and the districts of Gopalganj, Kishoreganj, Moulvibazar, Jashore, Kushtia and Chuadanga and it may continue," the Bangladesh Meteorological Department in Dhaka said.

From midnight to dawn, there may be light to moderate fog in certain areas of the nation and moderate to dense fog in others, mainly over river basins. Due to dense fog, inland river transportation may be impeded.

The country may see a brief period of partly overcast skies accompanied by dry weather.

Across the nation, nighttime temperatures may drop little while daytime temperatures would hardly alter.

The extreme cold that has been plaguing the district has interrupted daily life, particularly for the elderly and children.

According to meteorologist Rakibul Hasan of the local Met Office, the district's lowest temperature was 8.3 degrees Celsius on Saturday.

The area has been experiencing a minor cold wave for the previous three days, despite the sun being visible.
