Mercury plummets; weather to remain generally cloudy today



KATHMANDU: Temperature has decreased in the Kathmandu Valley.

The minimum temperature of the Valley was recorded 5.4 degrees Celsius, the coldest this year on Saturday.

It was 6.5 degrees Celsius on Friday, according to the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology.

Due to a drop in the temperature, cold has been steadily climbing up throughout the country.

The Department, issuing a warning for the next 24 hours, urged one and all to keep warm and safe from cold as the mercury continues to dip.

Snowfall is predicted in some high hilly places of Sudurpaschim, Karnali and Gandaki Provinces sometime next week due to the mixture of westerly wind and westerly low-pressure system, the Department said.

Likewise, the weather will remain general cloudy in Province 1, and generally cloudy in the rest of the country, it said.
