The India Meteorological Department warns of Cyclone Remal, a severe cyclonic storm poised to hit the West Bengal and Bangladesh coasts around Sunday midnight, May 26. Formed from a depression in the central Bay of Bengal, it is forecasted to bring heavy rainfall and strong winds. Coastal districts of West Bengal and North Odisha brace for heavy to very heavy rainfall, while other northeastern states anticipate moderate to heavy showers. Precautionary measures are underway, with the Indian Coast Guard urging fishermen to return and coastal residents advised to stay alert as Remal approaches.
