The Meteorological Department is warning 54 provinces in Thailand to prepare for heavy rain, and to beware of flash floods and forest runoff.
People in these areas should be careful of the dangers of heavy to very heavy rain, which may cause flash floods and forest runoff, especially in areas on hillsides near waterways and lowlands in the north.
This is because the monsoon trough has moved down across the North and Northeast, along with the southwest monsoon blowing over the Andaman Sea, Thailand and the Gulf of Thailand, which is quite strong.
