Residents along Chao Phraya River urged to prepare for high tide until Feb 6
The Royal Thai Navy’s Hydrographic Department has announced that the level of Chao Phraya River near Samut Prakan’s Phra Chulachomklao Fort will rise from Sunday (January 30) to February 6 due to high tide.
“The Chao Phraya’s water level is expected to reach 1.87 meters above sea level from 6am to 8am of Monday, which is 17 cm. higher than critical level,” said the department. “Citizens are being urged to be cautious and closely monitor the water situation.”
The critical level means the level at which water could flow over to the areas behind the dam.
