Thailand Weather Forecast: Heavy Rains Expected in Upper Regions
Weather Forecast for the Next 24 Hours
Thailand is expected to experience continuous and heavy rain in some areas, with very heavy rain in the lower north, northeastern, central, and eastern regions. This is due to the strong monsoon trough in the lower north, upper central, and northeastern regions, combined with the low-pressure area around Hainan Island, China, and the relatively strong southwest monsoon blowing over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the upper Gulf of Thailand.
Residents in these areas are advised to be cautious of the dangers of heavy to very heavy rain and accumulated rain, which may cause flash floods and landslides, especially in areas with mountain slopes near running waterways and low-lying areas.
Wind waves in the Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf of Thailand are expected to be quite strong, with waves reaching 2-3 meters high. In areas with thunderstorms, the waves are expected to be more than 3 meters high. Boaters in these areas are advised to sail with caution and avoid sailing in areas with thunderstorms. Small boats in the Andaman Sea and upper Gulf of Thailand should refrain from leaving the coast for another day.
