This year's monsoon has stopped in Koshi region due to prevailing western winds. According to the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, due to the fact that the western wind has become a little more active, although the Koshi has expanded to most of the land, the monsoon has not yet progressed to the western land.
''The monsoon has been limited to Koshi province as the western wind has remained a little more active, it is seen that the situation will remain like this for two/three more days, ie the monsoon will not advance from east to west,'' Sanjiv Adhikari, a meteorologist of the weather forecasting division of the Department of Water and Meteorology, said.
Monsoon, which originates in the Indian Ocean and rises northward from the Bay of Bengal through Kerala, India, enters from the eastern part of Nepal and spreads to the west and exits from there. Due to the more active western and local winds, the monsoon has been limited to Koshi province even after 5 days of its arrival. The monsoon period, which receives 80 percent of the total annual rainfall, is usually about 4 months.
15 days before Sardar, Monsoon had entered since last Thursday. Normally, it enters Nepal within 10 to 13 days of entering the southern Indian state of Kerala, i.e. on June 13 (Jeth 30), but this year it entered earlier. This is the earliest onset of monsoon since 29 years i.e. after 31 May 1996. Kerala also entered last Saturday, 8 days before Sardar. The Meteorological Department has predicted more rainfall this year than the previous years. The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority has projected that the monsoon will increase the risk of disasters such as floods, landslides, inundation, and erosion.
