According to the Weather Forecasting Division under the Department of Water and Meteorology, currently monsoon has extended to the entire territory of Koshi Province, Madhesh Province, Bagmati Province, some areas of Gandaki Province and the eastern region of Lumbini Province. Monsoon, which normally enters Nepal on June 13, has entered six days late this year.
