(126/2024)
----------------------------
During 14–17 July 2024, the strong monsoon trough will lie across the North and the
Northeast of Thailand into an active low-pressure cell over the middle South
China Sea, the southwest monsoon prevailing over the Andaman Sea, Thailand and
the Gulf will strengthen with heavy rains in the country and isolated very
heavy rains in some areas. People should beware of heavy to very heavy rains
that may cause flash floods and overflows, especially, along water ways and
lowland and take more caution in thundershowers.
The rather strong wind forces the wave up
to 2-3 meters high in the upper Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf with above 3
meters high in thundershower areas while the waves in the lower Andaman Sea and the lower Gulf are about 2 meters high and above 2 meters high
in thundershower areas. All ships should proceed with caution and keep off thundershowers.
Small boats in the upper Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf should keep ashore during
14–17 July 2024. Please stay tuned for the weather update.
