#Kolkata: A new depression has been created in the Bay of Bengal. This depression formed in the North West Bay is already located in Central India. And in the middle of next week another depression will form in the North Bay. It is raining in Bengal mainly due to low pressure. The Alipore Meteorological Department said that the amount of rain may increase further. Their guess is that the new depression that is about to form, may initially go to Bangladesh. There is a possibility of severe depression on Wednesday, July 26. As a result, rains may increase in South Bengal from Tuesday. Heavy to very heavy rains are expected in several districts of South Bengal. Not only that, this cloudy sky across South Bengal may get light to moderate rain from Tuesday.
