The IMD has issued a heavy rain alert for 28 May in North and South 24-Parganas, East and West Midnapore
A low-pressure area is likely to form over the Bay of Bengal around 27 May and is expected to intensify over the following days, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said today.
The system is projected to move towards the northern Bay of Bengal, bringing heavy rainfall to parts of eastern India ahead of the monsoon's official onset. The IMD has issued a heavy rain alert for 28 May in four districts of south Bengal — North and South 24-Parganas, and East and West Midnapore, due to the influence of the developing weather system. Intermittent thunderstorms and scattered showers have already been reported in several parts of the state as moisture-laden winds and rising humidity levels dominate the region.
With the monsoon having already advanced into the Andaman and Nicobar Islands by mid-May, meteorologists expect it to reach Kerala by the end of the month—several days ahead of schedule.
