Monsoon spreading at a slow pace



KATHMANDU: The monsoon weather system has its influence in the eastern and central parts of the country at present while the local wind and the Westerly wind have a partial impact in the rest of the parts.

The weather in some parts of the country is cloudy with chances of light to moderate rainfall in the central and eastern parts due to this weather system, said the Meteorological Forecasting Division.

The monsoon system entered the country via the eastern part on June 14.

Meteorologist at the Division, Rojan Lamichhane, said the monsoon is gradually spreading and it will take a week before it extends across the country.

“The monsoon is spreading at a slow pace. It will take some more days for it to spread towards the western parts. Although the monsoon is weak to some extent, rainfall will take place continually,” he said.

Normally monsoon enters Nepal on June 13. This year the monsoon entered the country one day late.
