Thailand weather braces for temperature rise and heavy southern rain
The Meteorological Department of Thailand (TMD) today revealed that temperatures across the kingdom are set to rise by 1 to 2 degrees Celsius, with cool conditions persisting in the morning. However, heavy rains and floods are still prevalent in the southern region.
As of 5am today, the Thailand weather forecast for the next 24 hours indicates a decline in the strength of the cold air mass covering Thailand, leading to a rise in temperatures by 1 to 2 degrees Celsius, along with morning fog.
In the northern, northeastern, and central regions, as well as Bangkok and its vicinity, the eastern region, and the upper southern region, cool weather continues in the morning. Thai residents are urged to maintain their health amidst the changing weather conditions, to be cautious of potential fire hazards due to the dry weather, and to exercise caution when travelling in foggy areas.
Today’s weather conditions in Thailand, as warned by the TMD, include heavy monsoon rains in the south, rising temperatures in the upper part of Thailand, and a sudden surge in temperatures in Bangkok. The city is submerged at 17 points and dangerously high levels of dust exceed the standard, especially in Nong Khaem.
As for the moderate northeastern monsoon blowing over the Gulf of Thailand and the southern region, this causes heavy rainfall in some areas of the lower southern region (east coast).
Meanwhile, the lower Gulf of Thailand has waves 1 to 2 metres high, and areas with thunderstorms have waves higher than 2 metres. The Andaman Sea has waves about 1 metre high, and areas with thunderstorms have waves higher than 2 metres.
Residents in the lower southern region are warned of the dangers of heavy rainfall and accumulated rain, which can potentially lead to sudden floods and forest runoffs, especially in areas near mountain slopes, waterways, and low-lying areas. Boat operators are also advised to navigate with caution and avoid areas with thunderstorms.
