Rainfall is generally from 5 - 15mm, some places over 30mm. During thunderstorms, beware of tornadoes, hail and strong gusts of wind around level 5 - 7 (8 - 17m/s), heavy rain causing localized flooding.
The thunderstorms are caused by stable continental cold high pressure. The equatorial low pressure trough has an axis at about 6-9 degrees North latitude. The high-altitude easterly wind disturbance has a weak impact on the weather in the South.
Around October 11-12, the continental cold high pressure is weakened and shifted back to the East. The equatorial low pressure trough slightly lifts its axis to the North through the South Central - South regions, and around October 11-12, it tends to slowly shift to the South.
Weather in the South: Cloudy to cloudy, with rain, showers in many places, scattered thunderstorms, some places with moderate rain, heavy rain, locally very heavy rain. During thunderstorms, beware of tornadoes, lightning, and strong gusts of wind.
Beware of heavy rain causing localized flooding in low-lying areas along the river.
