Bengal Braces for Temperature Rise: Cold Wave Recedes, Fog Warning Issued
- •A Western Disturbance over Kashmir and a cyclonic circulation near Lakshadweep will significantly reduce northerly winds, leading to a temperature increase across Bengal.
- •Temperatures are set to rise gradually, with the biting cold receding from most districts, though hill areas will still experience winter conditions until Saraswati Puja.
- •Another weather disturbance is expected from Monday, January 19, further contributing to the warming trend.
- •Dense fog is anticipated in the early mornings, reducing visibility and prompting a caution from the weather office for commuters.
- •North Bengal districts like Darjeeling, Alipurduar, Cooch Behar, Jalpaiguri, and Malda will see varying maximum and minimum temperatures, all indicating a rise.
