Maritime ports of Chattogram, Cox’s Bazar, Mongla and Payra have been advised to lower signal as squally weather is unlikely to persist over North Bay and adjoining coastal areas of the country, said a met office weather bulletin this morning, reports BSS.
Earlier, on Thursday, maritime ports of Mongla and Payra were advised to hoist danger signal number seven and Chattogram Port was asked to hoist danger signal number six as the very severe cyclonic storm “Fani” was approaching to Bangladesh’s coastal areas.
Besides, the Cox’s Bazar port was advised to hoist local warning signal number four.
At Saturday evening, the met office urged the maritime ports for lowering the danger signal and hoisting cautionary signal number 3 as the Fani weakened into a land depression after hitting the country with a fragile force 21 hours following ravaging India’s eastern Odisha coastlines.
Fani, dubbed to the deadliest cyclone in the region in decades, kept the mark of its wrath claiming at least four lives and injured over 63 others on Saturday as it lashed across the country after ravaging the eastern Indian coastlines.
