Pattaya — On October 26th, 2024, Pattaya City tourist police, alongside the Marine Department, intensified safety measures as Tropical Storm “Trami” brings strong winds and waves, impacting the Gulf of Thailand.

 

 

Although “Trami” remains approximately 400 kilometers southeast of Hainan, China, it is expected to approach Vietnam’s central coast from October 26th to 28th, causing rough seas along Thailand’s eastern coastline.

 

In Pattaya Bay, waves have risen to around 1.5 to 2 meters. Officials raised a half-mast red flag to signal potential danger, particularly for weekend tourists heading to Koh Larn. The Tourist Police and Marine Department patrolled from Bali Hai Pier to Koh Larn’s main piers, evaluating wave conditions and enforcing safety protocols.

What is the significance of a red flag flown at half-mast and not full-mast?
