Meteorological Department Predicts Heavy Rain for North Bengal Amid Rising Temperatures in Kolkata

Meteorological authorities have issued a forecast indicating that the sub-Himalayan districts of Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar, and Cooch Behar may experience heavy rainfall between May 21 and May 25.

This weather event is attributed to a low-pressure system developing in the region, which is expected to bring significant precipitation. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has advised residents to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions to ensure safety during the possible heavy downpour.

During this period, there may be an increased risk of landslides, especially in hilly areas, and localized flooding in low-lying regions. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely and will provide updates as necessary. Residents are encouraged to stay informed through official weather reports and to prepare for potential disruptions in transportation and essential services.
