Notably, on September 6, the Northeast region, from Thanh Hoa to Thua Thien Hue, will have thunderstorms due to the impact of the outer circulation of storm No. 3.
From the night of September 6 to the morning of September 9, in the Northern region and Thanh Hoa, there is a possibility of heavy rain, locally very heavy rain and thunderstorms with total rainfall ranging from 100 to 350mm, in some places over 500mm.
Heavy rains can cause flooding in low-lying areas; flash floods in small rivers and streams, and landslides on steep slopes.
Due to the influence of the wide storm circulation, it is necessary to be on guard against the risk of thunderstorms, tornadoes and strong gusts of wind both before and during the storm's landfall.
