IMD issues heavy rain alert for Bengal amid cyclonic pressure, gusty winds likely in Kolkata

Under the influence of a trough line and cyclonic circulation, several districts in South Bengal are likely to receive very heavy rainfall on Sunday and Monday. The forecast includes areas such as North and South 24 Parganas, Murshidabad, and Birbhum, where heavy rain is expected late Sunday night. Wind speeds may reach 30 to 40 kmph, accompanied by lightning and moderate showers.

In Kolkata, light to moderate rain has been predicted for both days, along with gusty winds reaching up to 40 kmph. Similar weather patterns are expected in surrounding districts. The forecast indicates that rainfall activity will reduce from Tuesday, although sporadic rain with thunder may continue in some parts of South Bengal.

North Bengal districts including Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar, and Cooch Behar are also expected to receive heavy rainfall at isolated locations. The weather system is likely to impact both northern and southern regions of the state through Monday, after which rainfall may become less intense but remain present in some areas.
