Today’s weather indicates that a weakening yet still powerful storm is expected to move across northern Thailand, bringing heavy rainfall from September 26 to 29.
The Department of Meteorology reported that the previously named “Depression” has transformed into a robust low-pressure system near Danang, Vietnam, as of 1 am today. This system is forecasted to travel along the monsoon trough, affecting northern Thailand during the mentioned period.
This movement will lead to substantial rainfall in various regions, including the north, northeast, central areas, Bangkok and its surroundings, the eastern parts, and the south. Some areas may even experience exceptionally heavy rainfall.
Thai residents are advised to exercise caution due to the potential risks associated with heavy to extremely heavy rainfall and strong winds in certain areas. These conditions may result in flash floods and runoff in mountainous regions near water bodies and low-lying areas.
In the northeast, specific warnings have been issued for the following provinces: Loei, Nong Khai, Bueng Kan, Nong Bua Lam Phu, Udon Thani, Sakon Nakhon, Nakhon Phanom, Chaiyaphum, Khon Kaen, Kalasin, Mukdahan, Mahasarakham, Roi Et, Yasothon, Amnat Charoen, Nakhon Ratchasima, Buriram, Surin, Si Sa Ket, and Ubon Ratchathani.
