The Meteorological Department has warned that some areas in the North, Northeast and East will experience heavy rain. People in these areas should be careful of the dangers of heavy rain, which may cause flash floods and forest runoff. In Bangkok and its vicinity, there is a 60% chance of thunderstorms.
The Meteorological Department forecasts the weather for the next 24 hours. The monsoon trough passes through the upper North and the upper Northeast, entering the low-pressure cell in the upper part of Vietnam and the Gulf of Tonkin. In addition, the moderate southwest monsoon prevails over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the upper Gulf of Thailand. This will cause heavy rain in some areas of the North, the Northeast, and the East. People in the aforementioned areas should be careful of the dangers of heavy rain and accumulated rain, which may cause flash floods and forest runoff, especially in areas on slopes near waterways and lowlands.
For waves in the Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf of Thailand, they are
moderate with waves 1-2 meters high. In areas with thunderstorms, waves are higher than 2 meters. Sailors in the aforementioned areas are advised to sail with caution and avoid sailing in areas with thunderstorms.
In addition, during 14-17 September 2024, the monsoon trough will move down to cover the lower northern region, upper central region, and northeastern region, while the moderate southwest monsoon blowing over the upper Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the upper Gulf of Thailand will become stronger. This will cause Thailand to have more rain and some areas will have heavy to very heavy rain.
For waves in the Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf of Thailand, they will be quite strong with waves 2-3 meters high. In areas with thunderstorms, waves will be higher than 3 meters. In the lower Gulf of Thailand, waves will be approximately 2 meters high. In areas with thunderstorms, waves will be higher than 2 meters.
Bangkok and its vicinity will have thunderstorms in 60 percent of the area. Minimum temperature 25-
26 degrees Celsius. Maximum temperature 32-35 degrees Celsius.
