Seasons of Bangladesh

We have said that Bangladesh is a country of six seasons. So there should be six seasons, generally there are six seasons but mainly three prominent seasons. The six seasons are as follows:

Summer season
Winter season
Rainy season
Autumn season
Late Autumn season
Spring Season.
And the main there prominent seasons are as follows:

• Summer season
• Rainy season
• Winter season.

Now we will know about these prominent three seasons.

• Summer season ( march to May ) :
During the summer the scorching heat of the sun the air become warmer. However the air over the Bay of Bengal and the Indian Ocean remains cool. Since the warm air is lighter, the air goes up and the cool air comes to fill in the vacuum in the North over Bangladesh and thus the local wind system works which obviously a part of the planetary wind system. But due to the rotation of the earth the air does not go to the straight North but to the North- eastward.
 For the role of the air coming from the southwest, plenty of rainfall is occurred in the summer season. It is about 20٪ of the total rainfall of Bangladesh.

 Average temperature: 28˚c

 Highest temperature: 42˚c

 Lowest temperature: 21˚c.



• Rainy Season: For adequate rainfall this season is known as the rainy season.

 The air in this period coming from the sea is stopped by the Khasia and Jaintia Hills and Himalayas in the north and Arakan yoma and Pegu yoma in the east and pours huge amount of water to support life. So the north-eastern part of Bangladesh received the heaviest rainfall. North and eastern part of Bangladesh received moderate rainfall and western part of Bangladesh received lowest rainfall.

 About 80٪ of our total rainfall is occurred in this season.

 Average temperature: 27˚c.
This phenomenon strongly dominates the country’s agricultural practices, life style, culture and of course economy. It would be really difficult to find artist and poets having no influence of rain in their work. It dominates-

I. Literature
II. Art
III. Song
IV. Agricultural production.


• Winter season: This time the sun goes southward and Indian ocean in the south of Bangladesh becomes warm. This warm region attracts the air from the north.

 The air from the great land mass of Russia and China in after crossing the great Himalayas and given a cool touch to our life but little rain. So sometimes some of the northern part of Bangladesh like Rangpur and Dinajpur experience cool winter waves where temperature goes down as low as 4˚c.

 Average temperature: 17.7˚c.

 Rainfall in this season is not more than 10cm.



It is the all about the seasons of Bangladesh.
