The Chao Phraya River appears set to overflow in Bangkok this weekend, as rising seawater level will add the woes to the country's raging flood crisis.
“The Chao Phraya River’s water level in Bangkok will likely rise to 2.6 metres (above normal sea level) over the coming weekend. It’s going to be higher than the embankment,” Bangkok Governor MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra said Tuesday.
