Winter Chill Eases in South Bengal

This winter in south Bengal has been one of the coldest in a decade.

From mid-December to mid-January, the days were much colder than usual, with the average daytime temperature being more than two degrees below normal.

The nights were also quite cold, with the average nighttime temperature being the second lowest in a decade.

The cold was caused by a mix of factors, including fog, clouds, and strong winds from the northwest.

The weather office predicts a slight rise in temperatures next week, but it won't be very warm.
