The weather in Bengal is changing once again. The Met office has forecast rain and thunderstorms for many South Bengal districts right from the start of the week. Over the next few days, most parts of the state can expect light to moderate rain, with some places getting heavy showers.

District Rainfall

Heavy rainfall is likely in South Bengal's Birbhum, Purba and Paschim Bardhaman, Hooghly, Nadia, and North 24 Parganas. These districts may also experience gusty winds of 30-40 km/h. Kolkata will remain partly cloudy with light to moderate rain, but no major downpour is expected yet.

North Bengal Weather

It's not just the south. The Alipore Met Department says North Bengal could also see significant rainfall. A heavy rain alert has been issued for districts like Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar, and Cooch Behar.

Met Office Alert

The weather office has confirmed that rainfall will increase in North Bengal, just like in the south. This active monsoon phase is expected to last across the state until September 9. Officials have advised everyone to stay safe and cautious during thunderstorms and strong winds.
