According to data from Vietnam Electricity Group, at 12:00 on March 24, in the Northeast region, Tuyen Quang Lake recorded an upstream water level of 115.04m, nearly 5m lower than the normal water level.
The water flow to the reservoir reached 126 m3/s, while the total discharge flow reached 244.49 m3/s, all through the plant.
In the Northwest region, Lai Chau reservoir reached 294.13m, approaching the normal water level (295m), the water flow to the reservoir is quite high at 314 m3/s but has not generated discharge.
Son La Lake is also at 213.89m, close to the normal water level of 215m, and has not yet discharged water even though the inflow to the lake is up to 452 m3/s.
Notably, Hoa Binh reservoir continues to maintain large discharge with a total flow rate of 635 m3/s, many times higher than the water flow to the reservoir (77 m3/s), mainly serving power generation.
Some other lakes in the area have significant discharge levels such as Ban Chat (242 m³/s), Huoi Quang (102 m³/s), Thac Ba (112.23 m³/s).
The water level of these lakes is all lower than the normal water level by 2–40m, creating water storage space in the near future.
According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, the weather forecast for March 24th, the Northern region has light rain in some places, early morning fog and light fog scattered, sunny skies in the afternoon. The highest temperature is commonly around 27 - 30 degrees C.
