Kolkata, November 20, 2025: In a striking departure from typical November weather patterns, West Bengal is experiencing an unprecedented atmospheric anomaly where winter remains conspicuously absent despite the calendar’s insistence on seasonal transition. The state’s meteorological department has issued formal alerts warning of unseasonable weather conditions, combining oppressively warm temperatures with unexpected rainfall predictions, creating a confusing and potentially hazardous climate scenario for residents and agricultural communities across the region.
The most pressing concern dominating the weather forecast involves a peculiar paradox: while temperatures continue soaring well above normal seasonal averages, meteorologists predict premature rain will affect coastal and neighboring districts between November 27 and 30, 2025. This meteorological contradiction—hot temperatures coupled with early rainfall—defies conventional understanding of pre-winter atmospheric behavior and presents unique challenges for weather-sensitive agricultural activities and daily life planning.
West Bengal Weather Forecast: The Concerning Pattern Emerging This Week
The West Bengal weather forecast for the upcoming days reveals a complex atmospheric development that has captured significant attention from climatologists and weather enthusiasts alike. According to the Alipore Meteorological Department’s latest bulletins, the state will experience a gradual increase in atmospheric moisture beginning Monday with cloud formation intensifying by Wednesday. This progression represents an unusual meteorological sequence for late November when the region typically experiences clear skies and declining temperatures.
Temperature readings across the state have already exceeded expectations for this time of year. Kolkata’s daytime temperature yesterday surpassed the 30-degree Celsius threshold with measurements reaching approximately 31 degrees in some locations. Night-time temperatures have settled around 18 degrees Celsius in Kolkata, while western districts report minimum temperatures hovering near 14 degrees Celsius. These readings, while not unprecedented individually, represent a collective pattern that suggests a delayed transition into winter conditions.
The weather update from meteorological authorities indicates that this temperature persistence will continue throughout the coming week, with little relief anticipated until the first week of December arrives. This extension of warm weather defies the traditional pre-winter cooling that residents have come to expect during late autumn months.
Premature Rainfall Alert: When and Where the Rains Will Arrive
Coastal districts and neighboring low-lying areas face the most significant rainfall alert issued by meteorological authorities for the approaching weather system. The Alipore Met Department has specifically warned that coastal regions face moderate to heavy rainfall probability between November 27 and 30 with the possibility of isolated thunderstorms accompanying precipitation. This premature rain forecast represents a critical concern for farmers preparing winter crops and communities harvesting autumn harvests.
The rainfall prediction timeline extends potentially through November 30 with meteorologists indicating that three consecutive days of substantial precipitation remain possible. Coastal districts including those bordering the Bay of Bengal face the highest risk of heavy precipitation. The weather alert emphasizes that visibility could deteriorate significantly during morning hours when fog formation becomes likely, particularly in northern and western regions.
Districts specifically identified as vulnerable to premature rainfall include coastal communities where atmospheric moisture concentrations have already begun rising noticeably. The meteorological department has advised farmers cultivating winter crops, particularly winter vegetables and pulses, to consider harvesting ripe produce before November 27 to minimize crop damage from unexpected rain exposure.
Temperatures Soaring Despite Early Winter Hopes: Regional Analysis
The anomalous temperature pattern deserves particular attention as it contradicts decades of historical weather data for this geographic region. Typically, November witnesses a predictable decline in maximum temperatures with the warming influence of the pre-monsoon period receding. However, this year’s weather update shows maximum temperatures maintaining elevated levels across virtually all of West Bengal’s districts.
Metropolitan Kolkata experiences maximum temperatures around 28-31 degrees Celsius, significantly above the historical normal of 25-27 degrees for this time period. Rural areas, particularly in southern and eastern districts, report comparable readings. Even North Bengal’s higher-elevation regions fail to show the expected cooling with Darjeeling region still experiencing mild temperatures unsuitable for traditional winter clothing adoption.
This temperature persistence stems from delayed westerly wind systems that normally establish dominance over the region by late November. The weather forecast indicates these systems remain positioned further north, allowing residual tropical air masses to maintain influence over West Bengal’s atmospheric conditions. This positioning explains both the sustained warmth and the eventual intrusion of moisture-laden air masses scheduled for late November.
Alipore Meteorological Department’s Official Advisory and Warnings
The meteorological authorities operating from Alipore have issued comprehensive advisories addressing multiple aspects of this unusual weather scenario. Their weather alert emphasizes several critical points for public awareness and preparedness. Authorities note that the combination of elevated temperatures and impending rainfall creates specific challenges not commonly encountered in November.
“The current atmospheric configuration represents an unusual pattern,” meteorological scientists explained in official statements. “While we observe sustained elevated temperatures typical of warmer months, moisture influx will arrive rapidly beginning November 27, creating unseasonable precipitation events. Residents and farmers should prepare accordingly, as this meteorological sequence differs significantly from typical November patterns.”
The meteorological department has specifically advised farmers to accelerate harvest activities for ripe produce before the predicted rainfall commences. Rabi season crops susceptible to water damage require particular protection. Authorities have also recommended that residents ensure adequate drainage systems function properly, as sudden rainfall following extended dry periods can overwhelm inadequate infrastructure.
Weather warnings include cautionary guidance regarding road visibility during morning fog formation. Commuters and commercial vehicle operators have been advised to exercise heightened caution during early morning hours, particularly November 27-29 when fog intensity may prove significant despite warm daytime temperatures.

Winter Delay Implications: When Will Real Cold Weather Arrive?
The persistent absence of typical winter conditions raises significant questions about when genuine seasonal transition will finally manifest. Meteorological forecasts indicate that winter will not firmly establish itself until after December’s first week arrives with temperature declines becoming noticeable approximately December 5-7, 2025. This represents a delay of nearly two weeks compared to the historical average December 1 winter establishment date.
This delay carries substantial implications for multiple sectors. Agricultural activities planned around traditional seasonal timelines face disruption. Health considerations shift, as residents delay transitioning to winter clothing and heating preparations. Festive season planning that traditionally aligns with established winter weather faces uncertainty regarding actual climate conditions.
The meteorological department projects that once winter finally establishes itself after the first week of December, it should persist through Christmas and beyond, with temperature declines potentially reaching 8-10 degrees Celsius below current levels by mid-December. This delayed arrival followed by sustained cold conditions represents a compression of the gradual seasonal transition normally observed.
Agricultural Impact and Farmer Advisory: Protecting Winter Harvests
Farmers across West Bengal face a critical decision window regarding harvest timing in light of the forecasted early rainfall. Traditional agricultural calendars have typically allowed harvesting flexibility extending comfortably through early December. However, the November 27-30 rainfall prediction substantially compresses this window.
Rabi season crops currently maturing—including various pulses, oil seeds and winter vegetables—face crop damage risks from unexpected precipitation exposure. While agricultural experts note that light rainfall would benefit germinating winter crops, the forecast intensity could exceed beneficial levels, potentially causing substantial losses for mature crops awaiting harvest.
Agricultural extension services have advised accelerated harvest schedules for fully mature crops, particularly in areas targeted by the rainfall forecast. Farmers should prioritize harvesting weather-sensitive crops before November 27, allowing adequate time for crop transportation and processing. Those maintaining crops under protective structures should ensure drainage adequacy around such installations.
Health and Safety Considerations During Unseasonable Weather
The combination of elevated temperatures followed by sudden rainfall creates specific health and safety concerns meriting public attention. Extended exposure to above-normal temperatures in late autumn challenges human physiology adapted to seasonal cooling expectations. Simultaneously, rapid weather shifts can trigger acute health events, particularly among vulnerable populations including elderly residents and those with pre-existing respiratory conditions.
Public health authorities recommend maintaining hydration during continued warm weather, despite the calendar’s suggestion that cooler conditions should predominate. Heat-related illnesses remain possible during this extended warm period. Simultaneously, preparations should address the upcoming rainfall event, including ensuring adequate shelter during any outdoor activities scheduled for November 27-30.
Respiratory health concerns merit particular attention during the fog formation period, as morning fog can trap air pollutants close to ground level. Individuals with asthma or other respiratory conditions should exercise caution during early morning hours when fog concentrations peak.
Conclusion: Navigating an Unpredictable Weather Transition
West Bengal’s current meteorological situation exemplifies the increasingly complex weather patterns characterizing contemporary climate dynamics. The delayed winter onset combined with premature rainfall forecast creates a scenario requiring heightened awareness and adaptive responses from residents, farmers, and infrastructure managers.
The weather forecast compiled by meteorological authorities provides essential guidance for planning activities and implementing protective measures appropriate to current conditions. Rather than assuming typical November weather parameters will apply, residents must adjust expectations based on the meteorological department’s detailed forecasts and advisory guidance.
As the region approaches the predicted rainfall event, monitoring official weather updates from Alipore and other meteorological sources remains essential. The transition from extended warm conditions to substantial precipitation will unfold rapidly, potentially catching unprepared residents and agriculture operations off-guard if adequate advance notice is not heeded.
The eventual establishment of genuine winter conditions following the first week of December should provide the seasonal stability typically associated with late autumn weather. Until that transition occurs, acknowledging and planning around current meteorological reality—characterized by unseasonable warmth and impending moisture influx—represents the most sensible approach to maximizing safety and minimizing potential disruptions.
