PHUKET: Phuket Vice Governor Wongsakorn Nunchukan has ordered emergency services on alert to respond to any flash floods following a weather warning issued by the Thai Meteorological Department (TMD) over the weather fallout from Category 3 tropical storm “Noul”.

 

“To prevent and mitigate disasters from floods, windstorm and mudslides which may threaten people’s safety and their property, we ask all local administrative officers to closely follow the weather report from the Thai Meteorological Department, check the situation in areas under their responsibility and be alert and ready to help people,” V/Gov Wongsakorn said this morning (Sept 17).

 

The TMD reported that at 4am today tropical storm Noul was centered at about 600 kilometers northeast of Da Nang, Vietnam, with sustained winds of 80km/h.
