The Meteorological Department Monday warned residents of 15 northeastern provinces to brace themselves for heavy rains and possible flash floods.
Rewat Tokpudsa, a forecast official of the department, said the heavy rains would be unleashed by the influence of the low-pressure ridge over the North and upper Northeast couple with the southwest monsoon over the Andaman and Gulf of Thailand.
He said the 15 provinces that would be hit by heavy rains Monday and Tuesday are Loei, Nong Khai, Udon Thani, Nong Bua Lamphu, Sakon Nakhon, Nakhon Phanom Mukdahan, Khon Kaen, Kalasin, Nakhon Ratchasima, Buri Ram, Surin, Si Sa Ket, Amnart Charoen and Ubon Ratchathani.
