Cyclone Arnab Causes Snowfall and Strands Trekkers in Nepal
Cyclone Arnab's weather pattern has caused snowfall and rain across Nepal, particularly in high-altitude areas.

Tourism officials report disrupted trekking activities and full accommodations in affected settlements. Authorities, including the Armed Police Force and local offices, have advised people to stay in safe locations until conditions improve.
