From Thursday to Wednesday of next week, the Office of National Water Resources issues a warning about potential flood in the North, Northeast, and Central Plains due to the already-exceeding storage capacities and rising discharge rates.
According to the office, nine significant reservoirs’ water volumes have now surpassed their top principle curves, which specify the storeroom or empty space that must be kept in a reservoir throughout the year. Areas inland were at risk of flooding as a result of the additional transfer:
* In the North
– Chiang Mai province’s Mae Ngat Somboon Chon source.
– Lampang’s Kiew Lom and Mae Mok source.
Northeastern United States
– Udon Thani’s Huai Luang source.
Sakon Nakhon’s Nam Pung and Nong Han dams.
– Khon Kaen’s Ubol Ratana source.
– The Lampao source in Kalasin
In the Central Plains, *
– Nakhon Nayok’s Khun Dan Prakan Chon source.
Rain is expected to continue into Thursday, and from Thursday to Wednesday of next week, flooding may occur in low-lying places below the pools.
The department issued a warning about flooding in the provinces of Phichit, Phitsanulok, Roi Et, Sukhothai, and Ubon Ratchathani’s low-lying areas.
Somsak Thepsutin, the deputy prime minister, expressed concern about the areas in Chai Nat state that are below the Chao Phraya battery bridge on Tuesday. Additionally, it will need to discharge water at a rate higher than 1,500 cubic meters per second than its usual rate of 1,400 cu / m.
The Pa Sak River has already flooded the majority of the Lom Sak district in the northern & nbsp, province of Petchabun.
The liquid that was dispersing throughout Lom Sak, according to assistant provincial governor Chatchawal Benchasiriwong, was a mixture of water from the Huai Khon Kaen tank in the city and runoff from it.
If there wasn’t more rain, he claimed, the rainwater would recede in two to four days.
