DHM: Rain and snowfall forecast due to influence of Westerly low pressure system

Kathmandu: The Meteorological Forecasting Division has predicted moderate rain in some areas and snowfall in the highlands due to the influence of a Westerly low-pressure system.

Meteorologist Rojan Lamichhane said that light rain and snowfall were observed in some parts of Sudurpaschim Province and a few locations in Karnali Province on Tuesday. The weather is generally cloudy in the Sudurpaschim, Karnali, Lumbini, and Gandaki provinces, while the hilly regions of Koshi and Bagmati provinces are partly cloudy.

The rest of the country is experiencing mainly fair weather. Meteorologist Lamichhane also warned of fog and haze in parts of the Terai and Kathmandu Valley, which could disrupt daily activities and affect transportation and aviation services. This atmospheric condition is expected to persist until Wednesday, with a drop in maximum temperature, leading to cold weather.
