Northern and north-central regions anticipated for heavy rain ahead of Tet

The National Hydro-meteorological Forecast Centre has also warned of the possibility of whirlwinds, lightning, and strong winds impacting northern areas.

The phenomenon is set to be accompanied by a cold snap, whilst temperatures in northern and north-central regions will be between 15 degrees Celsius to 21 degrees Celsius from February 8 to February 9.

The Central Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention and Control has therefore urged localities to be proactive in implementing plans aimed at ensuring the safety of people and property, whilst striving to minimise damage.

The sunny weather conditions are set to cover northern and north-central regions from February 10 and will last for the duration of Tet.

The temperatures over Tet will range between 16 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius in the region with low humidity.
