Kolkata and adjoining districts may witness a rise in temperature by 2-3 degrees while the western districts may see a jump in the mercury by 3-5 degree Celsius in the next couple of days,” a weather official said.

The MeT office had earlier said that several North Bengal districts, including Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Jalpaiguri, Cooch Behar and Alipurduar will witness thundershowers. The western disturbances will enter western parts of the country on April 12 which may contribute towards the soaring of mercury, said the weather office.
