The country is now in the post-monsoon season, following the monsoon's complete withdrawal on October 12. The monsoon began retreating from certain parts Nepal on October 6, with its full exit completed by October 12. This year, the monsoon arrived four days later than usual and took an additional six days to withdraw completely. As a result, cooler temperatures have set in, and meteorologists are advising the public to take precautions against the cold. -- RSS
