Royal Irrigation Department to increase water discharge through Chao Phraya Dam
Today 18:20Key points summarised by AI
The Royal Irrigation Department (RID) will increase water discharge through the Chao Phraya Dam to alleviate pressure from heavy rainfall in upstream areas.
Discharge volume will rise from 1,800m3/s to potentially 2,000m3/s, as upstream water flow is expected to reach 2,100-2,200m3/s by Friday.
This increased discharge will elevate Chao Phraya River levels by 0.70-1.20 meters in low-lying, unprotected riverside areas of Ayutthaya and along the Noi River.
Authorities in Ayutthaya have been instructed to warn residents along the Chao Phraya River to prepare for potential flooding and continuously monitor the water situation.
