The Thai Meteorological Department issued its 10th bulletin on July 13, 2025, warning of strong winds in the Andaman Sea and upper Gulf of Thailand, plus heavy to extremely heavy rainfall in the southern west coast, western central region, and eastern region through July 15. Southwest monsoons will intensify across the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand during July 13–15, generating waves 2–4 meters high in the upper Andaman, exceeding 4 meters in thunderstorm areas. In the upper Gulf and lower Andaman, waves will reach 2–3 meters, exceeding 3 meters where thunderstorms occur. Fishers are urged to navigate with extreme caution, avoid thunderstorm zones, and keep small boats ashore during this period.

Heavy to extremely heavy rainfall is expected in the southern west coast, western central region, and eastern region on July 13–14, particularly in Ranong, Phang Nga, Chanthaburi, Trat, and Kanchanaburi provinces. Residents should prepare for flash flooding and flash floods, especially in foothill areas near waterways and low-lying zones.

Tropical storm Bavi, now over China's Anhui Province, will weaken into a depression and later a low-pressure system. It will not enter Thailand and poses no direct threat, but it will intensify the southwest monsoon already covering the country. The department urged the public to plan travel and daily activities carefully and monitor weather updates at tmd.go.th or by calling 0-2399-4012-13 and 1182. The next bulletin will be issued on July 13 at 5:00 p.m.

The Thai Meteorological Department has issued warnings for 30 provinces expecting heavy to very heavy rainfall affecting 60% of areas, with risks of flash flooding and flash floods, including Bangkok and surrounding areas. On July 13, 2025, forecasters predict rainfall across Thailand in the next 24 hours, with heavy to very heavy falls in the upper northeastern region, western central, eastern, and western southern coastal areas due to strong southwest monsoon winds over the Andaman Sea and Thailand, combined with a low-pressure system over northern Vietnam. Residents in these areas must be cautious of heavy to very heavy rainfall and accumulated moisture, which may cause sudden flash floods and flash floods, especially in foothill areas near watercourses and in lowland basins. Sea conditions around the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand will be rough, with waves 2-4 meters high in the upper Andaman (exceeding 4 meters during thunderstorms) and 2-3 meters in the lower Andaman and upper gulf (exceeding 3 meters with storms). Boat operators should navigate cautiously and avoid areas with thunderstorms; small boats in the Andaman and upper gulf should remain ashore until July 15, 2025. Coastal residents along the western southern coast should watch for dangerous wave surge. Tropical storm Bavi, currently over Anhui Province in China, is forecast to weaken into a depression and further lose strength; it will not affect Thailand. Those traveling to that region should check weather conditions before departing. Regional forecasts for the next 24 hours include: Northern region with 70% thunderstorm coverage and heavy rain in Mae Hong Son, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Phayao, Nan, and Tak; temperatures 22-25°C low, 30-34°C high; southwest winds 10-20 km/h. Upper Northeastern region with 70% thunderstorms and heavy to very heavy rain in Nong Khai, Bueng Kan, Udon Thani, Sakon Nakhon, Nakhon Phanom, Mukdahan, Amnat Charoen, and Ubon Ratchathani; temperatures 22-24°C low, 28-35°C high; southwest winds 10-20 km/h.
