Swelling rainfall across Thailand, spurred by the rising strength of a monsoon coupled with an area of low atmospheric stress, has compelled the Thai Meteorological Department (TMD) to warn that 47 provinces may face probably hazardous situations. Over the following 24 hours, it predicts 60% of their areas will face heavy rain, with the severity being probably the most significant in the northern and northeastern regions of the nation.
Meteorologists at the TMD have attributed this increase in rainfall to the interaction of a trough of the southwestern monsoon as it crosses Myanmar and enters the northern area of Thailand, towards a pocket of low atmospheric pressure in Laos and North Vietnam. This system is underpinned by a southwestern monsoon, which intensifies over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand.
The TMD cautioned that these phenomena, once converged over Thailand, will result in larger rainfall and heavier showers in some components of the country notably within the east. Altitudes in the north and northeast of the nation are projected to experience intense rain and accrued rainfall. This has the potential to trigger sudden floods and forest runoff.
Instant in these areas, particularly near uphill areas, waterways, and lower plains are urged to be cautious of potential risks. In the higher Andaman Sea, waves are anticipated to be 1 to 2 metres high and in areas with stormy weather, waves may rise above 2 metres. Fishermen are requested to navigate boats with warning and keep away from regions with thunderstorms completely.
Weather forecasts for Thailand from 6am today till 6am tomorrow show that the northern region will expertise thunderstorms with 70% of the world affected, with heavy to very heavy rain in some parts, notably within the provinces of Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Phrae, and Nan. Minimum temperatures vary from 23 to 26 levels Celsius, with most temperatures of 32 to 35 degrees. Southeasterly winds will be blowing at a pace of 10 to 25 kilometres per hour.
The northeastern area can also be set to have thunderstorms with 70% of the realm affected and heavy to very heavy rain in some parts of the provinces notably Khon Kaen, Udon Thani, Maha Sarakham, and Nakhon Ratchasima amongst others. Minimum temperatures might be around 23 to 26 levels Celsius, maximum temperatures at 31 to 36 degrees, and southeasterly winds at a velocity of 10 to 20 kilometres per hour.
In the central area, thunderstorms are predicted in 60% of the realm, especially in the province of Ayutthaya, Kanchanaburi, and Nonthaburi. Minimum temperatures will doubtless fall to around 25 to 27 levels Celsius, maximums at 34 to 36 degrees and average westerly winds at 10 to 25 kilometres per hour.
The initial instance of a thunderstorm within the japanese area, covering 60% of the area, with heavy rainfall in some components, consists of the provinces of Nakhon Nayok, Chachoengsao, and Rayong to call a couple of.
The lowest temperatures will doubtless be around 25 to 27 degrees Celsius, the highest at 32 to 35 levels, and average westerly winds shall prevail at a pace of 15 to 30 kilometres per hour. Sea waves are anticipated to be about 1 metre excessive, rising to 1 to 2 metres in thunderstorm-hit areas.
The southern region, including Phetchaburi, Prachuap Khiri Khan, and Trang, is expected to see thunderstorms in 40% of the world, whereas the western shoreline of the area, together with Ranong and Phuket, may even see elevated thunderstorm exercise throughout 60% of the realm. The sea waves in these areas are anticipated to vary from 1 to 2 metres, rising past 2 metres in areas experiencing thunderstorms. The winds will primarily be from a south-westerly path, ranging in speed from 15 to 30 kilometres per hour.
In Bangkok and the encircling areas, thunderstorms are predicted across 60% of the realm. Temperatures within the region will vary between a low of 25 to 28 degrees Celsius and a high of 34 to 36 degrees Celsius. Wind will be blowing in a southeasterly direction at a velocity of 10 to 25 kilometres per hour..
