Storm Wipha wreaks havoc in Phuket, 22 provinces brace for its impacts

Yesterday 22:28Key points summarised by AI

Tropical Storm Wipha caused one Chinese tourist's death and serious injury to another by a falling tree in Phuket, alongside damaged cars, blackouts, and a marine rescue due to engine failure.
The storm, after battering Hong Kong and southern China, is set to make landfall in northern Vietnam, prompting Thailand's Department of Public Disaster Prevention and Mitigation to advise 57 provinces to brace for flash floods and mudslides.
Northern provinces are actively preparing, with Chiang Mai readying dams and 54 shelters for over 5,000 potential evacuees, and Chiang Rai clearing river obstacles and designating safe zones to mitigate flood risks.
