Some 4,000 families in Rayong hit by flash flooding

A flash flood hit two tambon in Rayong's Mueang district late Thursday night, inundating some 4,000 houses, a senior official said.

Thirawat Sudsuk, assistant Rayong governor, said officials from agencies concerned rushed out to help the 4,000 families in Tambon Tabma and Tambon Nonepha.
Police said the floodwater inundated the houses and Wat Tabma and the 36th highway from an intersection to the temple. Police said some parts of the road were under 1.5-metre-deep water.
