Over the next 72 to 96 hours, the storm moved mainly southwest, traveling at approximately 10 km per hour and gradually weakening into a low-pressure area.
Due to the impact of the storm, the northern South China Sea area (including the Hoang Sa Special Administrative Region) will experience strong winds of force 7-8; winds near the storm's center will reach force 9-11, with gusts up to force 13; sea waves will be 3-5m high, and 5-7m high near the storm's center. The sea will be extremely rough.
All ships and boats operating in the aforementioned hazardous areas are susceptible to the effects of thunderstorms, tornadoes, strong winds, and large waves.
On land, due to the influence of the storm circulation and cold air combined with easterly wind disturbances and topographic effects, from approximately October 22nd to 27th, the area from Ha Tinh to Quang Ngai is highly likely to experience widespread, prolonged heavy rainfall, with localized areas experiencing very heavy rain. There is a high risk of flash floods and landslides in mountainous areas, and flooding in low-lying areas and urban areas. Local authorities need to be prepared with response plans for flood scenarios on rivers from Quang Tri to Quang Ngai, which may reach or exceed alarm level 3. The forecast indicates a level 3 natural disaster risk due to floods and inundation.
