On the afternoon of November 5, convective clouds continued to form and develop in the provinces of Binh Phuoc, Tay Ninh, Binh Duong, Dong Nai, Ba Ria - Vung Tau, Ho Chi Minh City, Long An, Tien Giang, Hau Giang, Vinh Long, and Can Tho. The cloud nests moved slowly to the West.
From now until the next 4 hours, these convective clouds will cause showers and thunderstorms in the above area and neighboring areas such as An Giang, Dong Thap, Soc Trang... During thunderstorms, there is a possibility of tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind.
The thunderstorms are caused by the continental cold high pressure that is strengthening in the North and Central regions and diffusing weakly in the South. The low pressure trough with an axis at about 5-8 degrees North latitude is weakly active. Above, the subtropical high pressure with an axis across the North is strongly active.
Weather forecast for the next 24-48 hours, the cold continental high pressure continues to strengthen and diffuse to the South. The low pressure trough with an axis of 5-8 degrees North latitude tends to slowly move to the South.
Above, the subtropical high pressure has an axis across the North and North Central regions. The easterly wind disturbance above continues to be weak over the South. The northeasterly wind is gradually strengthening over the sea area in the southeast of the region.
From 72 hours, the continental cold high pressure continues to strengthen to the South, then stabilizes and gradually weakens. The low pressure trough with an axis at about 4-8 degrees North latitude is weak and moves to the South.
Northeast winds are gradually strengthening in the southern seas. Above, subtropical high pressure is crossing the North Central region. Around November 8, storm Yinxing is likely to enter the northeastern part of the East Sea.
Therefore, the weather in the South in the next 1-2 days has a probability of rain of 60-70%, then gradually decreasing. During thunderstorms, there is a possibility of tornadoes, lightning and strong gusts of wind. Beware of the possibility of heavy rain causing localized flooding in low-lying areas and areas with poor drainage capacity.
