April weather forecast
Bangladesh

April in Bangladesh signals the arrival of the pre-monsoon season and sees a significant rise in temperature across the country.

In major cities such as Dhaka and Chittagong, temperatures also spike. Dhaka typically experiences a temperature range from 25°C (77°F) to 37°C (98.6°F), whereas the coastal city of Chittagong, influenced by its location near the Bay of Bengal, has a slightly cooler range, with temperatures between 24°C (75.2°F) to 35°C (95°F).

This increase in rainfall is a precursor to the impending monsoon season, which commences in June. Frequent thunderstorms are a common occurrence during this period, contributing significantly to the month's precipitation.

Despite the sweltering heat and sudden showers, April holds a significant cultural event: the Bengali New Year, also known as Pohela Boishakh, which is celebrated with great fervor nationwide on April 14th. While the weather conditions may be challenging, the vibrant festivities can offer a unique cultural experience for visitors. However, it's worth noting that the temperature and humidity will further increase in the upcoming month of May, leading into the monsoon season.
