More rains anticipated as a depression is hovering in South China Sea

BANGKOK: The Meteorological Department has warned people in the Northeast, the eastern and central regions to brace for more rains next week as a result of a depression in the South China Sea.

The department said that the low pressure area in the central part of the South China Sea had developed into a depression at 10 am on Friday and its epic centre is about 700 kilometres eastward of Danang in Vietnam.

The depression has a wind speed of 55 km/hour at its epic centre and it is moving westward a bit to the north at a speed of 20 km/hour while picking up speed.

The depression is expected to cover coastal provinces of central Vietnam during June 26-29 and this will bring about more rains in the northeastern, eastern and central Thailand.

The department advised people to keep themselves abreast with weather announcements.

Oh no! My area gets quite badly flooded. Oh, it's not called a flood? it's just a very slow release of water down the drains? Phew!

How can the South China Sea be depressed? Maybe the rain is just a form of "crying"...

oh........555555

It has an epic centre..... the peripheries are pretty sexy too! 5555!

Losing faith in their predictions again. They were correct about the BKK area for a few days.

Enjoying this cooler weather.

A/C only on a couple of hours

Each day!!

This time last year we were still waiting for the rain, even though it was the rainy season. So not so dumb reporting.

No rains and ppl complain and now raining everyday still ppl r complaining 55555555+

I for one actually welcome the rain as the weather is much better and cooler now.

I like it when the nights rain and I have a hot cup of tea, hot soup or hot noodles and tuck in nicely to a movie with my wife.

I just pity my poor dog who have to skip her night walks cos I come home late from work. sorry puppy!
