Thailand
21 July 2025 - 27 July 2025The strong southwest monsoon prevailed over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand in the first half of the week before weakening. Additionally, the monsoon trough lay across upper northern Thailand and upper Laos during 22-23 Jul. and extended toward a low-pressure cell over upper Vietnam on 24 and 27 Jul. This low-pressure cell persisted over upper Vietnam for most of the week. Moreover, the tropical storm “WIPHA (2506)” which initially made landfall in southern China, moved into the Gulf of Tonkin and made landfall again over Thai Binh, upper Vietnam at 10:00 a.m. on 22 Jul. The storm subsequently weakened into a tropical depression and later into a strong low-pressure cell over Laos, before advancing to cover upper northern Thailand and upper Myanmar. These conditions brought rainfall across wide areas of upper Thailand almost the entire week, particularly in the northern region, where heavy to very heavy rainfall was observed in several areas, leading to prolonged flooding in various provinces. In the southern region, rainfall was mainly observed in the upper portion.
