The Meteorological Department said today (April 28) that a rather strong high-pressure system is covering upper Thailand and the South China Sea, while a westerly wind is blowing across the North.

 

Isolated thundershowers and gusty winds are forecast for the upper country. People should stay safe from the severe weather and farmers must be prepared for crop damage, it warned.

 

Meanwhile, a strong easterly wind prevails over the Gulf and the South. Isolated heavy rains and gusty winds are forecast in many areas. The strong wind and waves over the lower Gulf from Surat Thani southward are likely at 1-2 metres and about 2 metres in areas with thundershowers.
