Flood instructions have been issued for five northern regions where the rapidly rising Mekong River’s banks may burst.
A sizable amount of rainwater was flowing downstream on Tuesday, according to the Office of the National Water Resources, and it could cause flooding in the provinces of Bung Kan, Nakhon Phanom, Mukdahan, Amnart Charoen, and Ubon Ratchathani this year.
Overflowing from the inflamed Mekong has already flooded several areas of Nong Khai state.
One of the worst flooded areas in Muang region is the metropolitan area. Over the past few weeks, everything there has been at a stop.
The provincial department issued a red flag to some communities on Tuesday and strongly advised residents it to stay informed about the situation despite the fact that the flood level is decreasing.  ,
Some areas of the town are also closed to traffic as a result of the strong flood current’s eroded road surfaces.
The Mekong was rising in Nakhon Phanom, but municipal president Niwat Chiawiriyabunya was optimistic that they could keep the area clean. He claimed that the river’s water level was also three meters below the crisis level.
According to him, Nakhon Phanom venue has been prepared for use as a temporary shelter in the event that people and contractors along the Mekong businesses need to relocate to higher floor, and Nakhon Phanom citizens and vendors have been given advice to do so.
After leaving Ubon Ratchathani, the Mekong travels into southwestern Laos.
