Water springs in Mueang Na, Chiang Dao, Chiang Mai have been causing unusual flooding, leading to road closures. Normally dry for six months, these springs have continuously flowed, affecting multiple areas simultaneously and disrupting local transport.

 

A TikTok user, under the account @j_khamsan, shared videos highlighting the strange phenomenon of multiple water springs in Mueang Na, Chiang Dao district, Chiang Mai province. The relentless water flow has inundated roads and agricultural lands, making them impassable for vehicles.

 

The video footage reveals water bubbling up, flooding roads, fields, and local farms. The water level is deep yet clear, submerging some trees up to their tops. The water shows no signs of stopping, creating a significant disruption in the area.

 

The teacher narrating the video explains that for two months, the main route through Mueang Na, Chiang Dao, has been cut off by water over a stretch nearly 1 kilometre long. Vehicles are forced to detour through Nong Khiew village to reach Rin Luang village.

 

The water springs originate from underground and spread across several areas, with water levels deep enough to submerge tree trunks and steadily rising.

 

 

Water has reached the road’s edge with no indication of receding. Some trees are submerged to their tops, with springs occurring at multiple points.

The springs emerge on one side and flow to another, leading observers to a large hole where clear but potentially dangerous water continuously surfaces and collects in various locations, uncertain of what lies beneath.

 

Additionally, responses to comments indicate that it usually takes around six months for the water to dry. Typically, such events occur every three to four years but this year the springs have been ceaseless, with water levels persistently rising.

 

The area lacks dams or reservoirs, and there are no natural drainage routes like streams or creeks, causing water to accumulate and deepen significantly, with multiple springs appearing simultaneously, reported Sanook.
