A few places in other regions may also experience similar conditions.

The Division has also forecasted light rain and snowfall at some locations in the mountainous regions of Koshi, Bagmati, Gandaki, and Karnali provinces. Additionally, there is a possibility of heavy rainfall at one or two locations in Koshi Province today.
