Domestic flights at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) have remained generally affected today owing to adverse weather.

The adverse weather and a low visibility issue affected the flight schedule to Pokhara and Bharatpur.

TIA General Manager, Jagannath Niraula said, however, that international flights are continued.  Flights to other domestic airports in the hilly areas have been generally disrupted.

Buddha Air's information officer, Dipendra Kumar Karna also confirmed that they are waiting for the restoration of visibility to operate flights on the Pokhara and Bharatpur routes.

Currently, there is an influence of a monsoon wind across the country.

According to the Meteorological Forecasting Division, the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, presently monsoon trough is positioned slightly northward from the average location, triggering the partial to general rainfall across the country.

There remain chances of heavy rainfall at a few places in the Gandaki Province and Lumbini Province and at one or two places in the rest of the Province today.
