On the evening of June 23, the Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention and Search and Rescue of Lam Dong province announced the cause of the heavy rain that lasted for a long time on the afternoon of June 23, causing localized flooding in many areas in the center of Da Lat city.
Accordingly, in Lam Dong province, there are areas of thunderstorms developing, causing heavy rain in the central area of Da Lat city. The intensity of the rain is high, concentrated within just 1 hour (around 13:00 - 14:00), with the amount of rain measured at some points such as Ward 5 being 65 mm; Ward 4 reaching 57 mm... causing water to quickly concentrate in low-lying areas, leading to inadequate drainage, causing localized flooding.

In particular, units and localities are required to organize inspections and installation of warning signs at locations of roads with overflows and streams that are prone to sudden flash floods during heavy rains; review, inspect and cut down trees at risk of falling, causing unsafety for people along both sides of the road and in residential areas. Do not let unexpected accidents happen that affect people's property and lives; urgently carry out dredging and clearing of sewers, ditches, canals, streams and drainage works to prevent blockage of flow when heavy rains cause flooding (especially in residential areas and low-lying areas).
