Caution required as cold increases

It has been getting colder all over the country including the capital Kathmandu Valley in recent days. Experts have pointed out that the maximum and minimum temperatures are changing even though it is sunny in the afternoon.

Even though the minimum temperature has dropped in the last week, it has been relatively warmer due to sunny weather, so people have not been feeling too cold. But the temperature decreased even further for the past two days. According to the Meteorological Department, the maximum temperatures were 16, 18 and 20 degrees Celsius in last three days. Today, the minimum temperature in Kathmandu is 4.4 degrees Celsius and the maximum is 18 degrees Celsius.

The weather will continue to change. Meteorologist Shanti Kandel said that necessary precaution should be taken as there is a possibility of further cold. "The weather is changing these days and there is a possibility of light rain and snowfall," he said. At present, Nepal does not have a significant weather system. However, meteorologist Kandel said there was a general effect of westerly winds.

According to him, there is partial to normal change in the country now. There is a possibility of light snow in the high hills and light rain in one or two places. The weather forecast department has been forecasting this for three days. According to the department, the weather is generally clear in the hilly areas with partial to moderate change. There is a possibility of light rain in one or two places in the hilly terrain of Province No. 1 and Bagmati Province. Light snowfall is expected in a few places in the high hills and mountains of the country.

Similarly, in the hilly areas of the far western states and other states, the weather will be generally clear with partial to moderate change. Light snowfall is expected in a few places in the high hills and mountains of the country. The Division has requested to take necessary precautions to avoid the cold as fog and mist are prevailing in the Terai region in the morning and the temperature is falling across the country.
