National —
On November 5th, 2024, the Meteorological Department of Thailand issued a warning about changing weather patterns affecting the country from November 5th to 6th.
A moderate to strong high-pressure system from China will extend over northern Thailand and the South China Sea from November 5th to 6th. This will bring cooler temperatures, particularly to the Northeast, where morning temperatures will drop slightly.
Mountainous areas may experience cold to very cold conditions, with residents advised to take precautions against the chilly weather.
Farmers in the north are advised to protect their crops from potential damage caused by the cooler weather, while residents are encouraged to take care of their health during this temperature drop.
In the southern provinces, a monsoon trough combined with a low-pressure system will result in heavy to very heavy rain. This could lead to dangerous conditions, including flash floods and landslides, especially in low-lying and hillside areas.
The department urges residents in the South to stay alert, particularly those living near rivers and flood-prone regions. People in the southern region should prepare for possible disruptions due to severe rainfall and flood risks.
