KATHMANDU: Change in weather with light rainfall is likely with the impact of westerly wind.

Meteorologist at Weather Forecasting Division, Hira Bhattarai informed that temperature had been decreasing for some days in the country. The westerly wind is getting active. “Generally as the monsoon retreats, westerly wind becomes active. So, we are likely to have light rainfall in the hilly areas of Sudurpaschim, Karnali and Lumbini Provinces today and tomorrow,” he added.
