This year may be more stormy than every year

According to Tran The Kiem, deputy head of the short-term meteorological forecast department (Central Hydrometeorological Forecast Center), this year, the number of storms operating on the East Sea may be more than the average for many years.

In addition, this year, storms, tropical low pressures and floods will be more complicated every year with stronger intensity. In particular, it does not exclude the possibility that very strong storms (such as Hurricane Nagris) will land in our country during this rainy and stormy season.

In spite of the fact that there are very few strong storms like Nagris (about 10 years, there are some strong storms of 13-14, while Nagris storm is strong at level 17).

Researchers in the field of meteorology and hydrology also warn: the weather of this year is very unusual, this has been shown in the storm No. 1 appeared very early and formed right on the South China Sea with intensity strong and not according to natural rules. Therefore, it does not exclude the possibility that there will be very strong storms hitting the Mekong Delta.

According to the assessment of the National Committee for Search and Rescue, if strong storms from level 13 or more landed in the Mekong Delta area, the damage of our country will be very large.

Because the Mekong Delta region rarely suffers from storms, the people's awareness and experience of storm prevention is not high. Especially houses and infrastructure in this area are mostly unstable, very vulnerable to storms.

Excluding the possibility that very strong storms (such as Hurricane Nagris) will land in our country during this year's rainy season.
