According to meteorologists, significant weather alterations have been observed in the provinces of Lumbini, Bagmati, Gandaki, and Karnali, with gradual improvements anticipated in Sudurpaschim, Koshi, and Madhesh State.
These developments are expected to intensify overnight, particularly in the western regions.
