Every country has their own unique extreme weather they have to deal with. Nepal is a country that has an abundance of woes. Some areas of Nepal deal with extreme heat conditions. Particular during the spring/summer season of may through July is when it is at its most. Areas such as the Bheri zone of Nepal are most affected. Such hazards greatly pose a threat to construction workers working for a prolonged period of time in such heat conditions rising the risk of heat stress. According to research by ThinkHazard.org continued emissions of greenhouse gases will further warming, and it is virtually certain that there will be more frequent hot temperature extremes over most land areas during the next Fifty years. Other threats witness an exact opposite weather condition. Extreme rainfalls also plague Nepal. In fact heavy rainfalls are the principle cause of Natural disasters in Nepal according to the Mountain Natural Resource Division of Nepal. Nearly 80% of the total precipitation occurs during the monsoon season between June and September, followed by 8% during the post-monsoon and 12% during the pre-monsoon season. Such rainfalls trigger the amount of landslides occur in mountain areas, greatly affecting inhabitants nearby. Roads, infrastructure and houses can get destroyed in a matter of seconds. Even more so with an excessive amount of rain
increases the chances of floods in civilizations.
