The Meteorological Department has announced that Thailand will continue to experience thunderstorms, with heavy rain expected in some areas of the North, Northeast, Central, including Bangkok and its vicinity, East, and the Western coast of the South.
For the next 24 hours, thunderstorms and heavy rain are forecasted for the North, Northeast, Central, including Bangkok and its vicinity, East, and the Western coast of the South. Residents in these areas are advised to be cautious of heavy rain and accumulated rainfall, which may lead to flash floods and water runoff, especially in foothill areas near waterways and low-lying regions. This weather is due to the prevailing southwest monsoon covering the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand, combined with a low-pressure area over northern Vietnam.
In the upper Andaman Sea, from Ranong province upwards, waves are expected to reach heights of 1-2 meters, with areas experiencing thunderstorms seeing waves higher than 2 meters. Mariners in these areas should proceed with caution and avoid sailing in thunderstorm areas during this period.
