There have been several cold-related illnesses including diarrhea, colds, and coughs. Adults and children are a bigger problem. The number of these patients is higher in hospitals.
The northern part of the country suffers a chilling winter. Fog falls like raindrops with icy wind. Even during the day, it’s like evening weather on the highway. The same goes for the northern districts of Kurigram and Panchagarh. Public life in moderate to mild cold. In the harsh winter, the pillow on the cabin bed appears to be icy cold.

Such a situation is created in the presence of clouds. So the incidence of winter increased there. However, when the clouds disappear, the sun’s rays reach the earth’s surface. Then the intensity of winter diminishes. The meteorological office has predicted that it will have to wait another two or three days to get rid of the prevailing cold snap.
