Widespread heavy rainfall puts 43 provinces on high alert through Sunday

Today 10:02Key points summarised by AI

**Widespread Alert:** 43 Thai provinces are under a severe weather warning for heavy to very heavy rainfall and potential flash floods until September 27.
**Meteorological Cause:** A strong low-pressure system over Cambodia, combined with an active monsoonal trough and strengthening southwest monsoon, is driving these conditions across multiple regions, including Bangkok.
**Public Safety:** Authorities caution residents about flash floods and runoff, advising commuters to avoid flood-prone routes and urging careful travel planning.
**Marine Hazard:** Deteriorating sea conditions, with waves reaching 2-3 meters and higher during storms, prompt warnings for mariners to navigate with extreme caution and small boats to remain ashore in northern areas.
