On the afternoon of June 3, monitoring satellite cloud images, weather radar images and lightning positioning showed that the thunderstorm area was developing and causing rain with thunderstorms and lightning in the Can Gio area (HCMC).
In the next 0-3 hours, thunderstorms will continue to develop, causing showers, accompanied by thunderstorms and lightning in the above areas, then expanding to other neighboring areas.
Rainfall is generally from 2-15 mm, in some places over 20 mm. During thunderstorms, beware of tornadoes, hail and strong gusts of wind of about level 5-7 (8-17 m/s), heavy rain causing local flooding.
The image that causes thunderstorms is due to low groove with axis at about 24-26 degrees north latitude connected to the western low pressure area, pushing the south to the south by a part of the continental high pressure in the north. High, subtropical high pressure through the South of the South China Sea. Southwest monsoon operates with average intensity, convergence of southwest wind works well.
Weather forecast for the next 24-48 hours, the low pressure trough with an axis through the North Central region will continue to maintain. The southwest monsoon in the South will operate at medium to strong intensity. Above, the subtropical high pressure is active again and tends to lift its axis to the North.
Weather forecast for the next 3-10 days, the low pressure trough with an axis over the North Central region will gradually increase. From around June 7, the low pressure area in the West tends to develop again. The southwest monsoon will operate at medium to strong intensity.
Above high, subtropical high pressure continues to tend to raise the axis to the north and gradually encroach to the west; By 8-9.6 weakened and slowed down to the east. East wind turbulence is likely to be formed from around 6.6 and affect the weather of the Southern provinces.
Therefore, in the coming days, the weather in the South will be cloudy to cloudy, with less clouds and sunshine. In the afternoon, there will be scattered showers and thunderstorms, with moderate to heavy rain in some places. During thunderstorms, beware of tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind.
