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.

The weather is generally cloudy in Sudurpaschim, Karnali, Lumbini, and Gandaki provinces, while the hilly regions of Koshi and Bagmati provinces are partly cloudy, said Meteorological Forecasting Division. Lamichhane also warned of fog and haze in parts of the Tarai 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, according to her.
