Heavy to very heavy downpours are drenching Thailand's eastern region, with significant rainfall also threatening Greater Bangkok, the northeast, central plains, and the south.
The Meteorological Department issued a 24-hour weather advisory, urging residents in vulnerable areas to prepare for potential flash floods, forest runoffs, and landslides.
This widespread unsettled weather is driven by an active low-pressure cell moving across Cambodia along a monsoon trough and a moderate south-westerly monsoon.
Maritime conditions are hazardous, with waves reaching up to 3 meters in stormy areas of the Gulf of Thailand, prompting a strong warning for seafarers to navigate with extreme caution.
