Local wind has its general impact in the country at present and the weather will be partly to generally cloudy in the hilly parts and largely fair in the rest of the parts, the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology said. Meteorologist Pratibha Manandhar said brief or light rain accompanied by thunder and lightning is likely to occur at few places of the hilly region of Karnali and Sudurpaschim provinces, and at one or two places of the hilly region in the rest of the provinces.
According to her, there is possibility of mild gusty wind in the Tarai region of Sudurpaschim and Lumbini provinces today. Manandhar added that there are also chances of brisk gusty wind after 1pm today afternoon. She said gusty wind occurs as the rain-causing system is not active during the pre-monsoon period. It was not windy when it rained some days back. The windy weather has started with onset of sunny weather. The sun is intense since the morning today at many places of the country.
The weather is partly cloudy in Karnali and Sudurpaschim provinces. Light rain is predicted in these provinces towards the afternoon. Cloudy conditions are likely in Karnali, Sudurpaschim and Koshi provinces tonight.
