The abrupt extreme weather required the weathermen from surprise.
A thunderstorm was called as a result of the remaining moisture of this cyclone.
“We’d anticipated a few spells of rain which could peter off towards day.
However, not a constant shower just like the one we’d had.
The strong westerly end, which helped to shape the squall line, hadn’t been anticipated.
It led in Kolkata getting more rain than this on Wednesday when the cyclone had struck,” said Das.
For Kolkatans, there’ll be no immediate respite in the moist weather.
A thunderstorm has repeatedly been called as a result of high moisture incidence in the area.
“When the temperature rises from the next half of this afternoon, we might again get rain and end on Friday,” said Das.
Meanwhile, the Yaas stayed cooperating over south Jharkhand because of melancholy.
It moved gradually towards the north at a rate of 9 km/hr for half an hour on Thursday.
It’s very likely to weaken to a well-marked low stress region early on Friday.
