snoop1130 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Stay indoors during Storm Noul, warns Meteorological chief By The Nation The Meteorological Department has set up a command centre to monitor tropical storm Noul this weekend, Somsak Khaosuwan, department director-general, said on Friday. Department directors at the command centre on the 11th floor of the 50th Anniversary Building in Bangkok had held a video conference with Meteorological Centres nationwide to monitor the storm situation, he added. The storm crossed into northeastern Mukdahan province on Friday afternoon and is forecast to bring heavy rain across most of the country this weekend. The Meteorological Department has advised all boats to stay ashore for the next three days. “People living in at-risk areas should be on alert for heavy rain, flash flooding and strong winds. People can protect themselves from strong winds by not going outdoors and not sheltering under big trees or damaged buildings," Somsak said. The public could get updates on the storm at the Meteorological Department's website, or by calling the weather forecast hotline on 1182, he added.

RichCor Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I thought this had been downgraded. Still, heading to BKK. General Situation at 16:00 September 18, 2020 At 04.00 p.m. on 18 September, Category 3 tropical storm NOUL over Mukdahan in the Northeast of Thailand. It is forecast to downgrade to tropical depression. The strong southwest monsoon across the Andaman Sea, Thailand and the Gulf. Torrential rain with isolated heavy to very heavy rain will be possible in the North, the Northeast, the Central, the East and the South. People in the risky areas should beware of the severe rains that may cause flash floods and water runoff. Beware of strong winds by keeping off outdoor places, large trees and unsecured buildings The strong wind waves are likely in the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. In the upper portion of both seas, the waves will be likely 2-4 meters high and more than 4 meters high in thundershowers. In the lower portion, the waves will be likely about 2 meters and in thundershower areas more than 3 meters high. All ships keep ashore lasting 20 September. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll translate this announcement: "Don't go to protests during tropical depression Noul. You may get Covid or struck by lightening or a tree may fall on you. Stay safe indoors. Don't go outside to protest." Probably closer to it imho. Edited September 19, 2020 by connda 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
