IMD Forecasts Heavy Rainfall in South Bengal, Warns Fishermen
Get ready for some rain in south Bengal!
The weather folks say a big storm is brewing over the Bay of Bengal, and it's going to bring lots of rain from July 24 to 28.
Some districts like North and South 24 Parganas are going to get hit with heavy rain.
Also, some areas up in the mountains will see rain too.
If you're a fisherman, stay close to the shore because it's going to be windy and rough out in the sea.
IMD forecasts heavy rainfall in south Bengal from July 24 to 28.
A low-pressure area over the north Bay of Bengal is expected to cause the rain.
Districts including North and South 24 Parganas, East and West Midnapore, Jhargram, Bankura, and Purulia are expected to get heavy to very heavy rainfall.
Heavy rain is also expected in some sub-Himalayan districts from July 25 to 28.
