Kolkata is eagerly awaiting the monsoon, which is expected to arrive between today and Saturday. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) reports that the southwest monsoon, already established in Kerala, is set to advance towards Bengal. Typically, Kolkata experiences the monsoon around a week after it reaches the northeastern states. However, the current cyclonic circulation over the Bay of Bengal might influence the exact timing of the rains.
Residents should prepare for potential showers and a drop in temperature as the monsoon approaches. The weather forecast indicates that the arrival of the monsoon will bring a much-needed respite from the recent heat, with temperatures expected to decline. The anticipation of the monsoon is high, as it plays a crucial role in replenishing water resources and supporting agriculture in the region.
