Hurricane Douglas not expected to reach Thailand
Hurricane Douglas will weaken before reaching the Asean region, according to Chawalit Chantararat, a water management expert and president of consulting firm Team Group.
Hurricane Douglas formed in the Pacific Ocean with level 4 strength (the highest is 5) moving to the west and will reduce its strength to level 2 and then land on the shore, bringing heavy rain to the Hawaii Islands on Monday morning.
It is expected to gradually reduce in strength until it dissipates around August 1 in the Pacific Ocean, approximately 3,000 kilometres east of Taiwan, so it will not affect other countries in any way.
However, around August 3, a storm will form in the Gulf of Tonkin. Chawalit has asked people to follow weather news closely.
