Nonthaburi province is on alert from September 29 to October 4 as water levels rise in three districts along the Chao Phraya River, with Bang Kruay designated as a flood‑affected area. On September 29, 2026, Governor Chayatha Mosikrat of Nonthaburi, in his capacity as provincial director, issued an announcement from the Provincial Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Command declaring additional disaster zones (flood) in Bang Kruay District after the Chao Phraya River’s water volume increased, threatening to overflow into riverside homes. The declaration covers seven local administrative bodies: Bang Kruay City Municipality, Sala Klang City Municipality, Plai Bang City Municipality, Bang Si Thong Sub‑district Municipality, Bang Khun Kong Sub‑district Administrative Organization, Bang Khun Nuen Sub‑district Administrative Organization, and Mahasawat Sub‑district Administrative Organization. It specifies village‑ and sub‑district‑level areas detailed in the notice so that government agencies, local organizations and related units can promptly undertake relief and disaster‑management measures within their mandates. In addition, Nonthaburi province has warned residents living along the river or in low‑lying areas in the three riverside districts—Mueang Nonthaburi, Pak Kret and Bang Kruay—to monitor rising water levels, especially during high tide, and to stay updated on the situation while preparing to move belongings to higher ground.
