I asked this question because the temperature forecasts show the temperature is moderate in Fhaka and Chittagong. but some glimpse of these cities show people wearing thick wools and sweaters!
While the night temp in dhaka and chittagong is 15-19 deg cels.!

Can any 1 explain??

BD is basically a very hot and humid country. But, it is quite cold from mid-December to mid-February. Our NW region, which is near Darjeeling and Bihar, is cold. Sometimes, the mercury comes down to only 6*C. In most of the night hours temperature remains at 8 to 10*C. At these temperature, even the westerners will feel cold.

We feel more cold because many of us do not have proper clothes. We do not have any heating system in the houses and our beds are not that warm. Moreover, the difference between summer and winter temperatures is a big 45*C or so. So, quite a few people die.

Note that BD people are working hard to produce clothes that cover the bodies of rich white people in europe and america. But, we people are still living without proper clothings. However, the way our economy is expanding, I think, the situation will change a bit in the next 5 years.
