The Hydrometeorological Station of the Northern Delta and Midlands also predicts that due to the influence of a low-pressure trough combined with strong wind convergence in the upper atmosphere, Hanoi will have scattered showers and thunderstorms this evening and tonight, with some places receiving heavy rain.
Rainfall is expected to be 15-30mm, with some areas over 50mm. From tomorrow evening to June 26, Hanoi is likely to have moderate to heavy rain with thunderstorms, tornadoes, lightning, hail, and strong gusts of wind, with total rainfall expected to be 50-100mm, and some places over 150mm.
Additionally, the Central Central region will experience scattered showers and thunderstorms from tonight until June 27, with locally heavy rain in the evenings. Thunderstorms in the Central Highlands and the South will decrease from June 25, but scattered showers and thunderstorms will persist in the afternoons and evenings.
The meteorological agency warns of potential tornadoes, lightning, hail, and strong winds during thunderstorms. Heavy rain could lead to flash floods on small rivers and streams, landslides on steep slopes, and flooding in low-lying areas.
Following the heavy rain, from around June 28-29, there is a possibility of widespread heat waves in the Northern region, from Thanh Hoa to Binh Dinh.
