The Meteorological Department reports an increase in rainfall across Thailand, with heavy to very heavy rain expected in some areas of the eastern and western southern regions. Bangkok and its vicinity will experience thunderstorms covering 60% of the area. The wind and waves in the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand are relatively strong.



Weather forecast for the next 24 hours: The southwest monsoon prevailing over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand is quite strong, along with a low-pressure area covering the upper part of Vietnam and the central South China Sea. This will result in increased rainfall in Thailand, with heavy to very heavy rain in some areas of the eastern and western southern regions. Residents in these areas should beware of heavy to very heavy rain and accumulated rainfall, which may cause flash floods and water runoff, especially in mountainous areas near waterways and low-lying areas.



For the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand, waves are relatively strong, with waves in the Andaman Sea reaching 2-3 meters, and over 3 meters in areas with thunderstorms. In the Gulf of Thailand, waves are 1-2 meters high, with over 2 meters in areas with thunderstorms. Mariners should proceed with caution and avoid sailing in areas with thunderstorms. Small boats in the Andaman Sea should stay ashore.
