Meteorological Department Warns of New Cold Air Mass with Rain

On February 8, 2024, the Meteorological Department forecasts a new cold air mass moving from China, covering southern China and northern Vietnam. The cold air is expected to spread to Laos, northeastern Thailand, and the South China Sea, causing temperatures to drop 1-3 degrees Celsius in the northeastern region. Southern Thailand will experience scattered thunderstorms due to the northeastern monsoon, with wave heights of 1-2 meters in the Gulf of Thailand. Central regions, including Bangkok, may see moderate air pollution due to poor air circulation.
