Heavy to very heavy rain is expected in parts of the upper North and upper Northeast regions.

The Meteorological Department of Thailand has forecast heavy to very heavy rain in parts of the upper North and upper Northeast regions. People living in these areas are advised to be vigilant against flash floods and sudden water flows, particularly those in mountainous regions or areas near waterways.

This is due to a monsoon trough that stretches across the upper North of Thailand and upper Laos, extending into a low-pressure cell in upper Vietnam. Additionally, the southwest monsoon continues to prevail over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand, bringing heavy rains to other parts of the country as well.
