Today's Weather Update

On Sunday, the Alipore Met Office indicated a major weather shift. While South Bengal's temperature will rise slightly, dense fog will increase. North Bengal may see rain and snowfall in hilly areas.

Temperature to Rise Due to Western Disturbance

A Western Disturbance over Punjab is affecting North India. A subtropical westerly jet stream is also active. A cyclonic circulation and a trough line are contributing to this weather change.

South Bengal's Weather

Fog will intensify in several districts of South Bengal. Light to moderate fog is likely in Kolkata, North & South 24 Parganas, and more. Dense fog is forecast for Birbhum and other districts. The fog will persist tomorrow.

Fear of Another Temperature Drop

The temperature will rise slowly due to the Western Disturbance. After a rise on Sunday, the weather will be stable for 2-3 days. Kolkata's temp will be 13-15°C. Another temperature drop is expected mid-next week.

North Bengal's Weather

Rain is forecast in four North Bengal districts, including Darjeeling and Kalimpong. Snowfall is possible in high-altitude areas like Sandakphu. Min temps in the hills will be 4-6°C, while other districts will see 9-14°C.
