Due to a fresh western disturbance, a cyclonic circulation is likely to form over west Rajasthan on Tuesday night, according to IMD Delhi.

The maximum temperature in Kolkata is likely to be around 25 degrees Celsius on Tuesday. The minimum expected temperature is around 15 degrees Celsius.
The Alipore Met office predicted a 2–4-degree Celsius rise in night temperature over the next three days.
