In the latest forecast published by the center on Friday (July 17), it was said that short-term floods may occur in seven districts of the country next week. However, the flood situation in the Sylhet region is likely to remain relatively stable during this time.

According to the forecast, the water levels of the Teesta, Dharla, and Dudhkumar rivers may rise over the next three days and exceed danger levels at several points. As a result, short-term floods may occur in some low-lying areas of Lalmonirhat, Nilphamari, Rangpur, Gaibandha, and Kurigram.

Additionally, the water of the Brahmaputra-Jamuna river may flow near or above warning levels in some areas of Kurigram, Gaibandha, Jamalpur, and Bogura. This raises the risk of temporary flooding in adjacent low-lying areas.

On the other hand, the Flood Forecasting and Warning Center has said that the flood situation in the low-lying areas adjacent to the Surma-Kushiyara rivers in Sylhet and Sunamganj districts may remain stable over the next 24 hours.
