Popular Post webfact Posted October 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2023 The Thailand Meteorological Department (TMD) issued storm warnings for 35 provinces across Thailand, with Bangkok expecting to bear the brunt with 80% of the area predicted to be hit hard. The public is urged to remain vigilant as the heavy rains may cause sudden flash floods. The 24-hour weather forecast starting today, October 12, indicates a high-pressure system or cool air mass from China will pervade the northeastern region and the South China Sea, causing a monsoon trough to swoop over the Gulf of Thailand and the southern region. This weather pattern will result in thunderstorms and heavy rain in some areas of the central region, including Bangkok and its vicinity, the eastern region and the southern region. Residents in these areas are advised to be cautious of dangers from heavy rain and accumulated rain which could lead to sudden flooding and runoff, particularly in mountainous areas near waterways and low-lying areas. Sailors are also cautioned to navigate with care and avoid sailing in areas where there are thunderstorms as the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand are expected to have waves about 1 metre high. In stormy areas, waves could be more than 2 metres high. by Nattapong Westwood Picture courtesy of KhaoSod.
