According to the latest low pressure news from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, two low pressures in the South Pacific region may affect sea and air travel plans.
Depression Invest 90P is currently operating near Papua New Guinea. It is forecast that this new low pressure has a high probability of developing into a tropical storm in the next 24 hours.
Satellite images show that the low pressure area is clearly reorganizing, with the center of the low circulation gradually forming, surrounded by strongly developing and spiraling into the center convective cloud bands.
Current environmental conditions are relatively favorable for the process of strengthening the low pressure, with high sea surface temperatures of about 29-30 degrees Celsius, low to moderate upper-level faulty winds and good airflow.
Global forecast models all predict that this low pressure area tends to move slowly and quickly strengthen in the next 24 hours.
Meanwhile, low pressure Invest 91P is located near Tuvalu in the South Pacific. This system is currently weak, with sustained winds of about 35 km/h.
Weather forecasts show that the possibility of this low pressure developing into a tropical storm in the next 24 hours is low. No official warnings or recommendations have been issued for this system.
Tourists planning to visit Papua New Guinea and surrounding islands should closely monitor the weather forecast and low pressure warnings for the next 1-2 days. Sea tourism, diving or boat travel may be affected if low pressure 90P strengthens into a storm.
In the Tuvalu region, weather conditions in general have not had major fluctuations, but the latest information on low pressure and storms is still needed.
According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, the weather in Vietnam's sea areas is generally quite stable, favorable for tourism and travel activities, but some areas still have scattered rain and moderate waves to note.
In the North and South of the Gulf of Tonkin, as well as the sea area from Quang Tri to Quang Ngai and the northern East Sea area, the weather will have rain in some places, visibility over 10 km, southeast to south wind level 4-5, waves commonly 1.5-2.5 m high, which may cause mild shaking for tourist boats.
The area from Gia Lai to Khanh Hoa and the middle of the East Sea is rainless, wind is lighter (level 3-4), waves fluctuate 0.5-2.0 m, quite favorable for coastal sightseeing and relaxation activities.
Meanwhile, the sea area from Lam Dong to Ca Mau, the Ca Mau to An Giang area and the Gulf of Thailand have good weather, no rain, light wind, low waves from 0.5-1.5 m, suitable for sea tourism and travel by small boats.
The South East Sea area and the Truong Sa archipelago have showers and thunderstorms in some places, although visibility is still good, local bad weather may appear. Meanwhile, the Hoang Sa archipelago area has no rain, south wind level 4-5, waves 1.0-2.0 m high.
Tourists planning to participate in sea activities should closely monitor weather forecasts, especially in areas with thunderstorms or waves over 2 m high to ensure travel safety.
