Warning: All ships and boats operating in the above-mentioned dangerous areas are likely to be affected by storms, whirlwinds, strong winds, and large waves. Coastal areas and river mouths from Quang Tri to Da Nang City need to be on guard against large waves combined with high tides and wind-induced water surges that can cause flooding in low-lying areas, coastal roads, and coastal landslides.
At the same time, on land, due to the influence of storm circulation No. 12 combined with strong cold air, from the afternoon of October 22, on the mainland coastal provinces from Quang Tri to Da Nang City, the wind gradually increased to level 6, sometimes level 7, gusting to level 8-9.
Due to the influence of storm circulation and cold air combined with East wind disturbances and topographic effects, from noon on October 22 to October 27, the area from Ha Tinh to Quang Ngai will have widespread heavy rain (heavy rain concentrated from the afternoon of October 22 to the end of October 23).

There is a high risk of flash floods and landslides in mountainous areas, flooding in low-lying areas and urban areas. Localities need to pay attention to the safe operation of hydroelectric and irrigation reservoirs before, during and after the storm, and prepare response plans for flood scenarios on rivers from Quang Tri to Quang Ngai that may reach alert level 3 and exceed alert level.
