FLOOD, RAINFALL AND RIVER SITUATION SUMMARY (as on AUGUST 9, 2007)

FLOOD OUTLOOK

• The flood situations continued to improve in the northern districts (Lalmonirhat, Kurigram, Gaibandha, Rangpur, Bogra & Jamalpur) and north-eastern districts (Netrokona, Sunamganj & Sylhet) with the water receding significantly in adjacent major rivers. And the situation is likely to improve further in the next 24 hrs, 48 hrs & 72 hrs gradually. • The Brahmaputra-Jamuna receded further significantly at all points and is flowing 12 cm & 56 cm above danger level at Serajganj & Aricha respectively. The water level in Jamuna at Serajganj is likely to flow below danger level in next 24 hrs. But, the gradual recession of floodwater from the settlement area is subjected to lagging one or two days. • Thus, the improvement in the flood situation in the districts of Serajganj, Pabna & Tangail will continue significantly. • The Ganges-Padma is flowing 85 cm & 73 cm above danger level at Goalundo and Bhagyakul respectively and is likely to fall both at Goalundo and Bhagyakul in the next 24, 48 & 72 hrs.
