From Ha Tinh to North Quang Tri also appeared heavy rain, total rainfall is generally 80 - 150mm, the highest place exceeds 300mm.

Prolonged heavy rains have caused water levels on many rivers in the Central Central region to rise rapidly.

In Da Nang, floods on the Vu Gia - Thu Bon River are still fluctuating at their peak. The Bo River (Hue City) and Tra Khuc River ( Quang Ngai ) are on a downward trend.
