The westerly trough moving past the North will cover the Northeast while a high-pressure system from China covers Vietnam and the South China Sea causing southeasterly winds to prevail over the lower Northeast and the East.

People in the North and the Northeast have been urged to take care of their health during the changeable weather and farmers must beware of damage to crops.
