From June to August, heavy rains and floods

The Department of Meteorology and Hydrology has just released a report assessing the weather and natural disaster situation nationwide from June to November 2025.

According to the assessment, the ENSO phenomenon is in a neutral state and will maintain a probability of 70-90% during the period from June to August.

Also during this period, the East Sea region may experience about 5 storms or tropical depressions, of which about 2 are likely to directly affect our mainland. This number is considered equivalent to the average level of many years in the same period.

Notably, extreme weather phenomena such as thunderstorms, tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind may occur sporadically across the country. The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting warns that from June to August, many periods of moderate to heavy rain will occur in the Northern, North Central, Central Highlands and Southern regions.

These are key areas for agricultural production and infrastructure development, at risk of flash floods and landslides in mountainous areas and urban flooding in low-lying areas.

These rains can be accompanied by other dangerous factors such as thunderstorms, which can easily cause damage to production, infrastructure and affect public health.

Meanwhile, the heat wave will tend to decrease in the Central Highlands and the South from June. However, in the North and Central regions, the heat wave will continue until around August before gradually decreasing from September onwards. The intensity of this year's heat wave is forecast to be at a level equivalent to the average of many years, but it is still necessary to be on guard against prolonged heat waves that can have negative impacts on life and production.
