BANGKOK, 5 April 2015 – The Meteorological Department has forecast higher temperatures in the upper part of Thailand and hot to very hot weather across the country this week.

From 7-11 April, a high pressure system from China will move to the upper part of the country and the South China Sea, resulting in tropical storms in the northern, northeastern, central and eastern regions. Thunderstorms, gusts and hail storms are expected in some areas.

The department warned people to take care of themselves following hot to very hot weather and avoid staying outside for a long time. It added that tropical storm Maysak near the northern Philippines would dissipate on 7 April off southern coast of China. The storm would have no impact on Thailand.
