webfact Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Red flags are being flown in Chai Nat province to warn people living along the Chao Phraya River to prepare evacuation, as the water level in the river exceeded the height of its banks by 83cm this morning (Sunday). Overflows from the river have already flooded many areas in Muang, Wat Sing and Manorom districts, which are located upstream of the Chao Phraya Dam. Runoff from the northern region is flowing into the reservoir at a rate of 3,094m3/sec, compared to a discharge rate of 3,058m3/sec through the dam. Irrigation officials said that it is necessary to increase the rate of the discharge to maintain a safe volume of water in the reservoir.
