Thunderstorms and lightning have also been reported in Nawalpur, Tanahun, Gorkha, Arghakhanchi and Rupandehi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wind speeds have increased in Kathmandu, particularly in the western part of the valley. Meteorologists say rain-bearing clouds developing around Chitwan, Hetauda and Makawanpur are moving toward the Kathmandu Valley, increasing the likelihood of rain accompanied by strong winds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although weather conditions are expected to improve somewhat on Thursday, rain is still likely in several parts of the hills and Terai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thunderstorms, lightning and short spells of rain may continue until Friday. However, meteorologists say the rainfall is likely to be intermittent rather than continuous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weather conditions are expected to improve gradually from Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Dashain approaching, many people are preparing to travel and take part in outdoor activities. Meteorologists have advised travellers and the public to check the latest weather information before heading out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Short periods of heavy rain, strong winds, lightning and hail could affect travel and outdoor activities in some areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meteorologists say the uneven weather pattern is linked to the ongoing withdrawal of the monsoon and the increasing influence of westerly winds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, sunny conditions may prevail in one area while thunderstorms and rainfall occur nearby.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weather conditions are expected to improve gradually from Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":437429,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,3,4,76,5],"tags":[],"reporter":[],"class_list":["post-437428","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-en-cover","category-english","category-en-news","category-society","category-top-stories"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/437428"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=437428"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/437428\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":437430,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/437428\/revisions\/437430"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/437429"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=437428"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=437428"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=437428"},{"taxonomy":"reporter","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reporter?post=437428"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
