According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, many places across the country will have moderate to heavy rain and scattered thunderstorms. Rain will be concentrated in the afternoon and evening.
According to the emergency flood news, the water level at 1:00 p.m. on September 13 on the Cau River at Dap Cau, the Thuong River at Phu Lang Thuong, and the Hoang Long River at Ben De were still above BD3. The water level on the Luc Nam River at Luc Nam and the Thai Binh River at Pha Lai were below BD3. The water level on the Red River in Hanoi was falling rapidly, above BD1.
Water levels at many downstream stations of the Red River - Thai Binh River system tend to decrease slowly in the next 24 hours, generally remaining at high levels from BD2-BD3, in some places above BD3 and decreasing slowly.
The process of flood drainage and reduction on the Red River system is likely to be slow, so flooding will continue for many days in low-lying areas, low-lying areas along the river, and alluvial areas outside the main dike in the following provinces/cities: Hanoi, Bac Giang, Bac Ninh, Thai Nguyen, Ninh Binh, Nam Dinh, Thai Binh, Ha Nam, Hai Duong. With the forecasted decrease in rainfall in the coming days, the flooding situation in low-lying areas along the river will gradually improve.
In addition to the Red River dike in Hanoi, water will be drained in the next 2-3 days, especially in low-lying areas in Chuong My along the Bui River in 10-13 days, the Tich River in about 7-10 days, the downstream of the Ca Lo River in 3-5 days, and the Nhue River in 2-3 days.
The downstream riverside areas of the Red River - Thai Binh (provinces of Bac Giang, Bac Ninh, Ha Nam, Ninh Binh, Nam Dinh, Hung Yen, Thai Binh, Hai Duong) will have to wait 3-6 days longer to drain the water. Residents and tourists still need to be on guard against the risk of landslides on steep slopes in the mountainous areas of the North, even though the rain has decreased.
Flood water levels in the lower reaches of the Red River are currently at high levels (level 3 - above level 3), so there is still a risk of affecting riverbank dykes, landslides, and embankments at key locations in the following provinces/cities: Hanoi, Ha Nam, Nam Dinh, Hai Duong, Hung Yen, Thai Binh, Ninh Binh.
