Less rain forecast across most of Thailand
Less rain is likely across most parts of the country, and temperatures in the Northeast, the North and the Central region will see an increase of 1-2° Celsius, the Thailand Meteorological Department said on Wednesday, adding that the monsoon trough still lies across the upper South. The department advised all ships in the Andaman Sea to proceed with caution in areas experiencing thundershowers, as a moderate wind was likely to whip up waves of 2 metres or more.
Meanwhile category 3 tropical storm Saudel in the Pacific has moved to the South China Sea. It will make landfall in Vietnam on October 24 and 25 before declining quickly.
