The Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) has issued an alert advising the maritime ports of Chattogram, Cox's Bazar, Mongla and Payra to hoist local cautionary signal number three.

The warning comes in response to a steep pressure gradient persisting over the North Bay and its adjoining areas, which may lead to turbulent sea conditions.
