Weather forecast for the next 24 hours: the relatively strong southwest monsoon prevailing over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand, combined with a low-pressure area covering the central region and the Gulf of Tonkin, will result in heavy rainfall in some areas of Thailand.
Residents in these areas should be cautious of heavy rain and accumulated rainfall, which may cause sudden flooding and flash floods, especially in hillside areas near watercourses and low-lying areas. Extra caution is also advised when traveling through areas experiencing thunderstorms.
The sea conditions in the Andaman Sea are quite strong. The upper Andaman Sea has waves 2-3 meters high, and more than 3 meters high in areas with thunderstorms.
