Petchaburi municipal area to return to normal next week

 

Water level in the Petchaburi river is expected to drop below its banks on Saturday and flood situation in Petchaburi township will become normal in the next three days after four days of flooding, according to the forecast of the provincial irrigation unit.

 

Vice mayor Mr Polayuth Angkinant said that the flooding in the municipal area was totally unexpected. He noted that the municipal area was spared from flooding even though huge amount of water, up to 600 cubic metres/second, was discharged from the Pet dam.

If only they had people in control who know what they are doing ,idiots ,big rain here let's let water out of the dam ,land of the stupid Los

There was no choice at the time as the dam had reached maximum capacity and there was the possibility of a breach.  Nevertheless, this has happened before, and surely the authorities could have placed other options in place.  Once again, minimal foward planning.
