Kolkata will experience clear skies with occasional light morning fog. The maximum temperature will likely hover around 28 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature may settle around 19 degrees Celsius.

The Meteorological Department has indicated that there will be no significant drop in minimum temperatures across the state in the next five days. This means that the much-anticipated bone-chilling winter is still a few days away.

While winter has arrived in a mild form, the recent increase in night temperatures has raised questions about the intensity of the season. The Alipore office of the IMD attributes this rise to the influx of water vapour from the Bay of Bengal.
