Western disturbances bring light rainfall to several districts

Met office says only 11 mm of rain or 18.3 percent of winter’s average, occurred so far. Light rain likely in Kathmandu Valley on Saturday afternoon.

Several districts of Sudurpaschim, Karnali, Lumbini, and Gandaki provinces witnessed light to moderate rainfall on Friday, thanks to western disturbances that offered some respite to farmers preparing their fields for the next planting season.
