Weather Outlook for Saturday in Nepal
Fog is expected to continue across most parts of the Tarai region on Saturday, with a higher probability of visibility issues in the Koshi province’s Tarai areas until midday. In other parts of the Tarai, fog may linger even after noon, according to the Meteorological Forecasting Division.
In the hilly regions of Karnali and Sudurpaschim, as well as some parts of Gandaki and Lumbini provinces, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy. The rest of the hill areas and the Himalayan region will likely remain mainly clear throughout the day.
There is a possibility of light rain or snowfall at one or two locations in the high hilly and Himalayan areas of Gandaki province during the day. These conditions are primarily due to the partial influence of westerly winds, which are affecting the country’s weather patterns.
At night, fog is likely to persist in most of the Tarai areas. The hilly and Himalayan regions of Gandaki and Karnali provinces are expected to see partly cloudy skies, with a chance of light rain or snowfall in some higher elevations of Gandaki.
