The Dhaka Times Desk The front of severe cyclonic storm Remal has already started hitting the coastal areas. That's why stormy winds are blowing with rain in different districts of the country. The Sundarbans area has already risen due to the tide. Around 20 villages in Rangabali upazila, an isolated island of Patuakhali, have already been inundated.
Today, Sunday (May 26) afternoon, meteorologists said that although the front of the cyclone has started to hit, the center of Remal is likely to make landfall in the next 3 to 4 hours from 6 pm onwards. In the center of the cyclone there is great energy.
According to the latest notification of the Meteorological Department, the maximum sustained wind speed within 64 km of the cyclone center is 90 km per hour, which may increase up to 120 km in the form of gust or gale. The sea is very rough in the vicinity of the strong cyclone center.
Cyclone impact may also cause tidal surges of 8 to 12 feet above normal tide in coastal districts. Heavy rains may also occur across the country. It may also cause landslides in some parts of the hilly areas.
It is expected that the cyclone will hit very hard. If the wind speed caused by a cyclone is 62 to 88 kilometers per hour, it is called a 'tornado' or tropical cyclone. If the speed is 89 to 117 km, it is called a strong cyclone, if the speed is 118 to 219 km, it is a super cyclone and if the speed is 220 km or more, it is called a 'super cyclone'.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
