West Bengal's weather this week will showcase a significant divide, with the southern regions experiencing a gradual rise in temperature and humidity, while the northern districts will enjoy intermittent rain. Temperatures in southern areas, particularly in western districts, are expected to reach 38-39°C. Kolkata will likely see clear skies, with a maximum temperature around 35°C and high humidity levels. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has indicated that western districts such as Jhargram, Purulia, and Bankura may experience isolated light rain or thundershowers starting midweek. Additionally, thunderstorms with gusty winds of 40-50 kmph are possible in these areas. In contrast, northern districts, including Darjeeling, Kalimpong, and Jalpaiguri, are forecasted to receive light to moderate rainfall throughout the week, with residents advised to seek shelter during storms. Overall, while the south braces for heat, the north will benefit from cooler, rainy conditions.
