October 12: The weather has started improving gradually with the low pressure system developed near Nepal becoming weaker, according to the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, Meteorological Forecasting Division.    
Meteorologist at the division Heera Bhattarai said that although the monsoon is still active, the low pressure system is weak and there has been a gradual improvement in the weather. She said the weather will fully improve across the country in the next two days.    
"Although the monsoon is ongoing, the rain-causing system has become weaker. Rainfall was reported at some places of Karnali and Sudurpaschim and at many places of the eastern and central regions on Tuesday. The weather will start to improve from Wednesday in Sudurpaschim and Karnali provinces while it will be fair across the country beginning from Thursday," said Bhattarai.    
Incessant rainfall that started since the past nine days is taking place only partially over the last four days due to the influence of the existing monsoon as well as the low pressure system that has developed around Nepal. The division said that it will take a week more for the monsoon's exit.    
The low pressure area near Haryana, India is impacting the weather in Nepal at present.
The minimum temperature in Kathmandu was 18 degrees Celsius and the maximum 26 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, the Division stated. -- RSS
