According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, from this afternoon (October 23) to the afternoon of October 24, the tropical depression will show signs of gradually weakening into a low pressure area in the North East Sea.

However, the meteorological agency warns: Due to the influence of the tropical depression combined with the strengthening cold air, the eastern sea of the North East Sea has strong winds of level 6-7, gusts of level 9, and waves of 3-5m high. The weather in this area is dangerous, with rough seas, posing a danger to ships operating in the area.

In response to the rapid movement of the tropical depression into the North East Sea, on the afternoon of October 23, the National Civil Defense Steering Committee sent a telegram to the People's Committees of 9 coastal provinces and cities from Nghe An to Khanh Hoa , requesting them to proactively deploy preventive measures to ensure safety for people and property.

The Steering Committee requested the localities named in the dispatch to closely monitor the warning bulletin and forecast the development of the tropical depression, promptly notify captains, owners of vehicles and vessels operating at sea to proactively prevent and adjust production plans accordingly. Provinces and cities need to maintain regular communication to promptly handle bad situations that may occur, and at the same time, be ready with forces and means to deploy rescue operations when required.
