During the last 24 hours, Sub-Himalayan West Bengal has received moderate to heavy rainfall activities. At the same time, central parts of West Bengal experienced light rains at isolated places. Gangetic West Bengal remained under Subdued Monsoon conditions. Very warm and humid weather conditions prevailed over multiple areas of Gangetic West Bengal.
Presently, a branch of the eastern end of Monsoon Trough passes across Himalayan West Bengal. Hence, during the next 24 to 36 hours, heavy to very rainfall is likely to continue over sub-Himalayan West Bengal and adjoining regions. However, due to lack of any synoptic systems in close vicinity of the Gangetic West Bengal region, the weather conditions are likely to remain mostly dry and very warm.
All these weather conditions over West Bengal will be affecting during the next 36 to 48 hours. Thereafter, the rain intensity will decrease over Sub-Himalayan West Bengal. Multiple places like that of Jalpaiguri, Siliguri, Kooch Behar, New Jalpaiguri, Darjeeling, etc might receive heavy to very heavy rainfall with moderate lightning strikes during the next one to days.
These rains will turn out useful for the crops. However, the absence of rainfall activities over rest parts of West Bengal might turn out dangerous for the ongoing crops of paddy.
