Northern Thailand to Experience Temperature Drop and Strong Winds, Warns Meteorological Department.


Bangkok: The Meteorological Department has announced that temperatures in northern Thailand are expected to decrease, accompanied by strong winds. Residents in these areas are advised to take precautions to safeguard their health amidst the changing weather conditions. Meanwhile, the southern region of Thailand is forecasted to experience heavy to very heavy rainfall in some parts of its lower areas. In Bangkok and nearby vicinities, the weather will be characterized by strong winds and a slight dip in temperature.

According to Thai News Agency, the weather forecast for the next 24 hours indicates that a high-pressure area, or moderate cold air mass from China, will cover the upper part of Thailand and the South China Sea. This climatic phenomenon will lead to a temperature drop and strong winds in the affected areas. The Meteorological Department has advised residents of northern Thailand to be mindful of their health during this weather shift.

The northeast monsoon, currently blowing over the Gulf of Th
ailand and the South, is intensifying, leading to predictions of heavy to very heavy rainfall in some regions of southern Thailand. The Gulf of Thailand is expected to have moderate waves, reaching heights of 1-2 meters, with even higher waves in areas experiencing thunderstorms. Sailors are cautioned to avoid navigating through these stormy regions.

Additionally, the tropical storm “Man-Yi,” situated in the upper South China Sea, is approaching Hainan Island, China, and is anticipated to weaken into a depression and subsequently a low-pressure cell today. However, this tropical storm is not expected to enter Thailand or have a direct impact on the country’s weather. Travelers planning to visit the affected regions are advised to stay informed about the weather conditions during this period.

In Bangkok and its surrounding areas, the weather will be partly cloudy with strong winds, and a slight drop in temperature is expected. The minimum temperature is forecasted to be between 23-25 degrees Celsius, while
the maximum temperature could reach 33-35 degrees Celsius.
