The Alipore Met office has issued a rain forecast for four straight days, from Sunday to Wednesday. They expect scattered showers across most districts of the state, from north to south.

Rain forecast again

According to the Met office, the sky will turn partly cloudy from Saturday. But the real rain spell is expected to begin on Sunday and might get heavier after Monday.

Which districts have a higher chance of rain?

The Met office predicts thunderstorms with rain in Jhargram, East Medinipur, and West Medinipur on Sunday. These districts, along with East and West Bardhaman, Birbhum, Murshidabad, Nadia, and Hooghly, could see more rain on Monday and Tuesday.

Possibility of scattered rain

A cyclonic circulation over Gangetic West Bengal and another over Bangladesh are causing this. A western disturbance over Jammu and Kashmir, plus a new one entering on Friday, are all creating the perfect conditions for rain.
