Storm Dumps Heavy Rain on Pattaya, Dozens of Vehicles Stalled
A sudden downpour flooded Pattaya on July 24, trapping dozens of vehicles on Sukhumvit Road and surrounding streets as authorities worked to drain water and restore traffic.
Heavy rain pounded Pattaya on the evening of July 24, 2569, causing rapid flash flooding across the city, particularly along Sukhumvit Road, the railway bypass, Soi Khao Noi, Soi Khao Talo, and Pattaya Soi 3. Water levels in some locations were notably high, damaging dozens of vehicles whose owners either attempted to drive through the floodwaters or had parked in inundated areas. Pattaya Municipality, working alongside police from Pattaya City Station and other agencies, rushed to the affected areas to assist residents, manage traffic flow, and accelerate water drainage to ease the public's hardship. Officials advised residents to avoid flooded routes and to monitor weather warnings closely until the situation returns to normal.
