RE: Spring Update

No. Summer is my favourite season.

You live in Bangladesh? You have a wet season and a dry season. Right? Between the dry and relatively cool season and the wet season there is a time when the weather gets hotter and hotter until the monsoon rains start. Then it's hot and humid until the rains die down. That's when the dry season gradually begins. It never gets very cold by our (= high mid latitudes) standards.

We have four distinct seasons here. I don't particularly like the spring. It is dusty, dirty and ugly. The only saving grace of the spring is the increasing light and the approaching summer.

Sort:  

No Brother. We have 6 season and every season have different from one another . But for globalization changed some our nature now. You are quite right . Our lowest temperature 3 degree c. It's not so cold than your .

Very interesting. Could you describe the six seasons, please? Do you live somewhere near the coast or somewhere further north?

Summer (grisma) Comprises Baishakh and Jyaistha (mid-April to mid-June) :
the two Bangla calendar months, when days are hot and dry.The Bengali year begins with summer

The rainy season (barsa) Traditionally spreads over Asadh and Shraban (mid-June to mid-August):
However, the rainy season may start from the end of Baishakh and last up to the beginning of Kartik (mid-May to late-October). During the rainy season, the southwest monsoon winds bring plenty of rainfall (70 to 85 percent of the annual total) and occasionally lasting for days without end without any respite.

Autumn (sharat) Lasts during Bhadra and Ashvin (mid-August to mid-October). This is traditionally the season when housewives put out clothes, musty and damp because of the rains, to air and dry in the hot sun of Bhadra. However, the bright day is often punctuated by sudden showers.

Late autumn (hemanta) The fourth season, covers Kartik and Agrahayan (mid-October to mid-December). Actually it is a transitional phase between autumn and winter. By mid-November the evenings grow cool

Winter (shit) The fifth season and the colder part of the year, in contrast to Summer, the hotter. According to the Bangla calendar it spreads over the months of Paus and Magh (mid-December to mid-February). But practically, November through February is the winter season in Bangladesh.

The spring (basanta) The last of the seasons occurs between winter and summer, spreads over the Bangla months Phalgun and Chaitra (mid-February to mid-April). The spring season is very brief in Bangladesh and practically prevails during March only. During this season, winds are variable in direction because this is the time of transition between the northerly or northwesterly winds of winter and the southerly or southwesterly winds of summer.

Thanks a lot. I read an article in the Dhaka Tribune that said that monsoon rains last longer than they used to and that the winter is shorter nowadays.

Your January is actually a lot like our July. The average daily maximum seemed to be 25 C in Dhaka and the minimum was 12 C. It happens that in southern Finland, the average July daily maximum is about 23 C and the daily minimum is 12 C. Even the average monthly rainfall was similar.

Yes, right brother . Our winter is very short .
Brother, you invite you to visit Bangladesh . It's really a country that has a great beauty . Come please and enjoy some days with us .
