The Department of Hydrology and Meteorology has stated that Nepal is currently under the influence of a western low-pressure system along with local winds. As a result, the Himalayan regions of Bagmati, Lumbini, Gandaki, and Karnali provinces are experiencing generally cloudy conditions, while the rest of the country is seeing partly cloudy skies.
This afternoon, the Himalayan regions and the hilly areas of Gandaki, Lumbini, Karnali, and Sudurpaschim provinces are expected to remain generally cloudy, with partly cloudy conditions elsewhere.
