The Meteorological Department of Thailand (TMD) issued a severe weather warning today for 18 provinces spanning the north and south of the country. Heavy rains, strong winds, and hailstorms are expected, posing a potential danger to residents. The department advises people to avoid open areas and weakly constructed buildings.

 

This weather forecast for the next 24 hours predicts another western wind wave from Myanmar moving across the northern region and Upper Laos. This could result in thunderstorms, strong winds, and hail in some areas of the northern region.

 

Residents in these areas are advised to be cautious of thunderstorms, strong winds, and hail, and to avoid staying in open areas, under large trees, billboards, and weakly constructed buildings. Farmers are also advised to prepare for potential damage to agricultural produce.


High-pressure areas are currently covering the northeast and the South China Sea, resulting in cool weather in the morning in the north, northeast, central, east, and upper southern regions. Temperatures may drop slightly and residents are advised to take care of their health due to the continued cool weather in the morning during this period.

How do we know which buildings have been weakly constructed?  I am always nervous about Pattaya Central; I swear it moves in the wind.
