DHAKA, May 27, 2024 (BSS) - Maritime ports of Chattogram, Cox's Bazar, Mongla and Payra have been advised to lower cautionary signals as cyclonic storm Remal crossed the coastal areas.
 
  The severe cyclonic storm "Remal" has weakened into a deep land depression while moving northwards, said Bangladesh Meteorological Department in its 19th special bulletin today.
 
  According to the bulletin, the storm moved northwards from Koyra, Khulna before weakening into a cyclonic storm and then weakening even further over Jashore and the adjoining area. It is likely to move northeastwards further and weaken into a land depression by giving precipitation gradually.
 
  Maritime ports were advised to lower danger signal number 10 but instead hoist local cautionary signal number three (r) three.
 
  All fishing boats and trawlers over North Bay have been advised to remain in shelter till tomorrow morning (May 28) and then proceed with caution.
