Cyclone Near Andhra Coast: Kolkata Spared Major Threat
4 Nov
Summary
- Cyclone to make landfall on Andhra Pradesh coast, not West Bengal.
- Kolkata and some Bengal districts may see light rain on November 3.
- No major damage or severe weather expected for West Bengal.
West Bengal is anticipated to largely escape the severe consequences of a cyclone forming in the Bay of Bengal. The storm is projected to make landfall near the Andhra Pradesh coast, specifically between Nellore and Narasapur, by the morning of November 3. While Andhra Pradesh may experience heavy rainfall and strong winds, the impact on West Bengal is expected to be minimal.
Residents of Kolkata and other districts in West Bengal may observe light rain and isolated thunderstorms on November 3. However, the Alipore Meteorological Department has indicated that significant damage or widespread disruption is unlikely. As the cyclone system moves away, clearer skies are expected, potentially leading to a decrease in night temperatures and the first hints of winter in the region.
