As I left home for office this morning, an unwelcoming surprise was waiting for me

The Meteorological Department recorded 87 millimetres rain between 6:00am and 9:00am and thunderstorm [Kalbaishakhi] at 52 kilometres per hour

Torrential rain has flooded low lying areas in Dhaka causing immense sufferings to the people and disruption of regular traffic flow.

It may rain intermittently throughout the day in Dhaka today (September 13, 2022), according to Bangladesh Meteorological Department. 

Dhaka dwellers saw slight improvement in air quality this morning after last night’s rain.

The lightning and thunderstorm sweeping across Dhaka since morning may weaken around noon following moderate to heavy rain, according to Bangladesh Meteorological Department.

This place of whatever square metres is a cure to everything, a sanctuary whenever one needs it; for privacy or some fresh air the balcony can't compensate.
