The Thai Meteorological Department (TMD) has issued a weather warning for multiple regions, forecasting heavy rainfall and thunderstorms, especially in the North, Northeast, East, and South. Bangkok and nearby provinces face a 70% chance of thunderstorms over the next 24 hours.
People are advised to stay alert for flash floods and surface runoff, particularly in foothills, near rivers, and low-lying areas.
The unsettled conditions are due to a low-pressure system over northern Myanmar and Laos, combined with a moderate southwest monsoon affecting the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand.
