In the afternoon of February 27, monitoring on satellite cloud images, weather radar images and lightning positioning showed that convective clouds are developing and causing rain with thunderstorms and lightning in wards/communes of Long Son, Binh Khanh, Binh Chanh, Hung Long, Binh Hung, Tan Nhut, Phu Dinh, Binh Dong...
In the next 3 hours, convective clouds will continue to develop, causing showers, accompanied by thunderstorms and lightning in the entire area. Common rainfall is from 5-30 mm, in some places over 30 mm. In thunderstorms, beware of tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind of about level 5-7 (8-17 m/s), heavy rain causing localized flooding.
The weather pattern causing thunderstorms is due to an equatorial low pressure trough with axis of 5-8 degrees North latitude combined with disturbances in the easterly wind zone at high altitude.
Weather pattern forecast for the next 24-48 hours, continental high pressure weakens, low trough with axis at about 26-28 degrees North latitude. Above, subtropical high pressure through the Central region operates stably after the trend of encroaching westward.
The equatorial low pressure trough with its axis at about 5-8 degrees North latitude tends to be weak and gradually fuller. Weak winds are maintained over the Southern sea area.
Weather pattern forecast for the next 3-10 days, a low pressure trough with axis at about 25-28 degrees North latitude is compressed by a part of continental high pressure intensifying from the North moving gradually southward and gradually filling up.
Around the night of March 2nd and March 3rd, the continental cold high pressure is likely to be strengthened again, then is likely to be strengthened more strongly around March 5-6th, about the last 1-2 days gradually stabilizing and then weakening.
Above, the subtropical high pressure continues to encroach westward, then has stable intensity, from around March 3-4. Weakening. Weak winds maintained over the Southern sea area, from March 6-8. Northeast winds tend to operate strongly.
The weather in the South tends to be sunny, dry due to low humidity, preventing a high risk of fire and explosion. At the same time, it is likely to have intermittent unseasonal rain, accompanied by thunderstorms and strong gusts of wind.
