According to the forecast of the Department of Hydrometeorology, this year's cold air will arrive early.
According to the weather forecast from the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, the first cold air mass may appear from the end of September. However, the cold air is still weak and not stable, so the weather in the North does not change too much in temperature.
From now until October 10, there are forecasts of about 2 storms or tropical depressions in the East Sea, one of which is likely to make landfall.
Cold air combined with storm and tropical depression activities can increase the possibility of heavy rain in a short time, accompanied by the risk of flooding, inundation in low-lying areas, and landslides in mountainous areas.
The Northern Delta, Thanh Hoa - Quang Ngai are likely to experience some heavy rains. The South and Central regions will have many days of showers and thunderstorms, locally heavy rain.
The rainfall forecast in the Northern Delta, and the provinces from Thanh Hoa - Gia Lai is 5-15% higher than the average of many years. While other areas will have 5-10% lower rainfall than the multi-year average.
People and tourists need to monitor daily weather forecasts to arrange flexible schedules, bring raincoats, limit travel to mountainous areas or along rivers and streams when it rains heavily.
