The Thai Meteorological Department issued a 24‑hour forecast for 30 September 2069, noting heavy rain in some southern areas and thunderstorms in parts of the north, northeast, central and eastern regions. In the south, provinces such as Surat Thani, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Phatthalung, Songkhla, Yala and Pattani on the eastern side, and Phang Nga, Krabi, Trang and Satun on the western side, are expected to see thunderstorms over 60% of the area with isolated heavy rain. Wave heights in the upper Andaman Sea will be moderate at 1‑2 metres, exceeding 2 metres in thunderstorm zones; mariners are advised to avoid navigation in those areas. Temperatures across the country range from lows of 22‑27 °C to highs of 31‑35 °C, with wind directions and speeds varying by region as detailed in the forecast.
