Kolkata and the rest of south Bengal won’t get rainfall in the coming two days and will continue to suffer from heat and humidity.
In addition, there is a heat wave alert for Bankura, West Midnapore, Purulia, Jhargram, West Burdwan, Birbhum and Murshidabad.
The weather conditions may improve later in Sunday and thundershower activities are expected. However, as of now, there are no such indications, the Met office said. There may be formation of a high pressure zone over Bay of Bengal and thus rainfall may be possible early next week – on Tuesday or Wednesday – but not before that.
Temperature was very high in several south Bengal districts on Thursday – Asansol, Burdwan, Bankura, Midnapore. These areas have all witnessed over 40 degree centigrade temperature. On Sunday, May 12, elections are scheduled for Tamluk, Kanthi, Ghatal, Jhargram, Medinipur, Purulia, Bankura and Bishnupur seats of south-west Bengal where the heat-wave will be a cause of concern.
