According to the Alipore Meteorological Office, the low-pressure system over the Bay of Bengal has weakened, leading to a reduction in heavy rainfall across South Bengal.
However, light to moderate showers are still expected in some districts, accompanied by partly cloudy skies.

Impact & Risks

The weakened low-pressure system has reduced the risk of heavy rainfall in South Bengal, but light to moderate showers may still disrupt daily activities in some districts. In North Bengal, the heavy rain alert indicates a higher likelihood of localised flooding and waterlogging, which could impact transportation and daily life. Residents in these areas should remain cautious and monitor updates from local authorities.
