Low-Pressure System Over Bay of Bengal Likely to Bring Heavy Rain Across South Bengal: IMD


PTI, July 3, 2026, Kolkata: A low-pressure system over the Bay of Bengal will bring heavy to very heavy rainfall to some districts of south Bengal till July 6, potentially causing waterlogging in low-lying areas in the region, the IMD said on Friday.

It said that very heavy rain is very likely over South 24 Parganas, Purba Medinipur, Paschim Medinipur, Jhargram, Purulia, Bankura and Howrah districts on July 5.

The low-pressure system over the northwest Bay of Bengal, which is likely to become more marked during the next two days, will bring heavy rain to most districts of south Bengal, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.

The IMD cautioned about possible waterlogging in low-lying areas owing to the expected heavy rain and thunderstorms.

After a few days of respite from the heavy downpour that affected north Bengal over the past week, heavy rain is once again likely in the region from July 7.
