Dailekh sits in Nepal’s hill or mountain country, where steep terrain and the June-to-September monsoon combine to produce a significant risk of flash flooding and landslides.
In Karnali province’s hills, the town’s steep terrain shapes local rainfall runoff patterns during the monsoon season. Because this terrain is generally less densely monitored than the Kathmandu Valley or the Terai plains, radar plays an especially important role in catching the intense, localized storms that can trigger dangerous landslides on Nepal’s steep hillsides.
