Today’s weather shows a fading yet still potent storm set to pass through northern Thailand with heavy rains anticipated between September 26 and 29.

 

The Department of Meteorology announced the weakening of the pressure system at 1am today. The storm, formerly known as “Depression,” has diminished into a strong low-pressure system near the city of Danang in Vietnam. This system is set to move along the monsoon trough passing through northern Thailand between September 26 and 29.

Provinces expected to experience heavy to very heavy rain in some areas are as follows:
