Meteorological authorities warn that Kolkata will continue to receive rainfall as the monsoon trough remains over the region.
The Indian Meteorological Department has issued a weather bulletin stating that Kolkata is expected to experience continuous rainfall for the next few days as the monsoon trough stays active over the Bay of Bengal. The trough, a low‑pressure zone that feeds moisture into the region, is projected to bring scattered showers and occasional heavy downpours across the city. Residents are advised to keep windows closed and to monitor local weather updates for any sudden changes. The forecast indicates that the rainfall intensity may vary, but the overall pattern points to persistent wet conditions.
