The regional weather office has issued an update indicating that rainfall over Kolkata will ease from November 12, while daytime temperatures are projected to drop by about three degrees Celsius.
The West Bengal Meteorological Department released a weather bulletin on November 10, noting that the current spell of rain over Kolkata is expected to lessen starting November 12. The advisory follows several days of intermittent showers that have kept the city wet and humid.
According to the forecast, the intensity of rainfall will reduce to light drizzles, allowing better visibility and less disruption to traffic and outdoor activities. Residents are advised to remain cautious of localized flooding in low‑lying areas until the rains fully recede.
Temperature forecasts show a noticeable dip, with daytime highs likely to be three degrees Celsius lower than the recent average. This cooling trend is typical for early winter in the region and may bring more comfortable evenings.
Authorities recommend that commuters carry umbrellas for the remaining showers and that vulnerable groups, such as the elderly, take precautions against the sudden chill. The department will continue to monitor conditions and issue further updates if necessary.
