Current Weather Condition in Nepal October 2025 - Important Update

The Department of Hydrology and Meteorology (DHM) has issued a weather alert predicting widespread precipitation across Nepal from October 27-29, 2025. According to the latest post-monsoon forecasts, the Himalayan region is expected to experience rainfall, snowfall, and fluctuating temperatures, especially in western and central Nepal.

This sudden weather shift is attributed to western disturbances and low-pressure systems moving inland from the Arabian Sea, affecting multiple high-altitude zones and mountain passes.

Regions Affected

Heavy rainfall, snowfall, and localized flooding may occur in parts of Gandaki, Karnali, Lumbini, and Sudur Paschim Provinces. The DHM has particularly highlighted potential risks in the following districts:

Gorkha, Manang, Mustang, Myagdi, Kaski, Parbat, Dolpa, Humla, Jumla, Mugu, Kalikot, Dailekh, Jajarkot, Rukum (East and West), Salyan, Baglung, Banke, Bardiya, Surkhet, Lamjung, Dhading, and Nuwakot.

High-altitude areas around Annapurna, Manaslu, and Dhaulagiri regions are predicted to receive moderate to heavy snowfall, which may affect trail conditions and visibility.

Advisory for Trekkers and Travelers

Local authorities and trekking agencies, including Best Heritage Tour, advise all visitors currently in the mountains or planning to travel in the coming days to exercise extreme caution. Weather in the Himalayas can change rapidly, leading to risks such as flash floods, avalanches, and landslides.

To ensure safety and preparedness, travelers are urged to follow these key guidelines:

Stay Updated: Check daily weather forecasts before and during your trek. Reliable updates can be obtained from the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, Nepal Tourism Board, and your local guide.
Dress Appropriately: Wear layered clothing suitable for cold and wet weather. Pack waterproof jackets, warm inner layers, gloves, and sturdy boots.
Carry Essential Gear: Keep a first-aid kit, headlamp, extra food, water, power bank, and a reliable communication device at all times.
Avoid Risk Zones: Refrain from camping or resting near rivers, steep slopes, or avalanche-prone areas.
Travel with a Licensed Guide: If possible, trek under the guidance of experienced local professionals who are trained to handle emergency situations.
Stay Connected: Always inform your trekking agency, lodge owner, or a trusted contact about your route plan and expected return time.
Be Prepared to Postpone: If trail conditions appear unsafe, consider delaying your trip or choosing an alternate route. Safety must remain the first priority.
