PATTAYA, Thailand – Thailand’s Meteorological Department has issued a 24-hour forecast indicating that a low-pressure system caused by heat continues to cover upper Thailand, resulting in widespread hot weather and extreme heat in some northern and central areas. Southerly and southeasterly winds are bringing moisture into the North, Central, Bangkok and its vicinity, and Eastern regions, leading to isolated thunderstorms and gusty winds.
The public is advised to be cautious of potential hazards from thunderstorms and strong winds in affected areas.
Meanwhile, easterly winds over the Gulf of Thailand, the South, and the Andaman Sea are expected to cause further thunderstorms in southern provinces. Sea conditions in the Gulf may see waves of 1–2 meters, with waves exceeding 2 meters in thunderstorm areas.
