Pattaya, Thailand – In the early hours of July 5th, 2024, Pattaya City experienced a sudden deluge that left streets submerged and vehicles stranded. The heavy rain caused chaos in several key areas.

 

The Impact
– **Cars and Motorcycles**: Many vehicles were caught off guard as water levels rose rapidly. Sedans parked along roads were particularly vulnerable.

– **Route Disruptions**: Third Road, the Mum Aroi Restaurant intersection in Central Pattaya, and the roads leading to North Pattaya all faced significant flooding. Khao Talo Railway Road, heading toward Wat Tham Samakkhi, witnessed a rapid increase in water levels.

– **Damage and Stranded Vehicles**: Some drivers attempted to force their way through the floodwaters, resulting in damage to their vehicles. Sedans were especially affected, while taller vehicles struggled to navigate the inundated roads.
