All the districts in north Bengal are "very likely" to receive heavy to very heavy rainfall till Thursday, following which the intensity is likely to lessen to heavy downpur for another two days, the met department said.
The districts of Malda, South Dinajpur and North Dinajpur are still recovering from the ravages of floods caused by torrential rains in the third week of this month that affected the whole of north Bengal.
The met office has forecast an overcast sky with one or two spells of rain or thundershower for the metropolis, which recorded 13.9 mm rainfall in 24 hours till 8.30 am today.
