Pa Buk weakens into low pressure cell but 4 provinces still face heavy rain
13 Sept 12:21 Key points summarised by AI
- Tropical storm Pa Buk has weakened to a low-pressure cell, but four southern provinces (Phetchaburi, Prachuab Khiri Khan, Chumporn, Ranong) are still expected to face heavy rain and potential flash floods.
- Wider regions, including the lower central area, eastern coastal provinces, and Bangkok, will also experience increased rainfall due to the system's influence.
- Rehabilitation efforts are now underway in storm-affected areas, focusing on restoring power supply, pumping water out of flooded zones, and conducting extensive cleanup operations.
- The Royal Irrigation Department has deployed substantial equipment, including 453 water pumps, to aid flood relief, estimating about one week to clear flooded townships, while areas like Pak Phanang district grapple with thick mud and ongoing flooding in some communities.
