According to the latest weather forecast from the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, a weak cold air mass is still moving southward, compressing and pushing the low pressure trough. Therefore, from the evening of April 3 to the early morning of April 4, the Northern region (except Dien Bien, Lai Chau) is forecast to have scattered showers and thunderstorms, common rainfall of 10-20mm, locally over 40mm.
It is noteworthy that during this rain spell, dangerous weather phenomena such as tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind may appear. This is a factor that tourists need to pay special attention to when monitoring rain forecasts and planning their travel in the North.
The current weather diễn biến is identified as a characteristic of the spring-summer transition period, when weak cold air continuously pours down and interacts with rapidly increasing daytime temperatures. The large temperature difference makes the atmosphere unstable, creating conditions for the formation of strongly developing thunderstorm clouds, leading to thunderstorms, tornadoes and hail.
In fact, in recent days, many Northern localities have recorded periods of thunderstorms and hailstorms causing damage, showing that extreme weather trends may continue in the short term.
For tourists, regularly updating today's weather forecasts and rain forecast bulletins is necessary to adjust the itinerary. You should limit travel in the late afternoon - a time when thunderstorms are likely to occur, avoid mountainous areas, steep slopes or places at risk of flooding. At the same time, you need to proactively plan safe shelters when encountering unexpected thunderstorms to ensure safety during the journey.
