The forecast for the next 24 hours indicates that the storm will move northwest, then gradually shift towards the north-northwest, traveling at approximately 10 km per hour, making landfall in the northeastern part of Vietnam and gradually weakening into a tropical depression.

The strongest winds near the center of the tropical depression were at level 6 (39 to 49 km per hour), with gusts up to level 7.

Over the next 24 to 36 hours, the tropical depression is likely to change direction, moving northward at approximately 10 km per hour, continuing inland and weakening into a low-pressure area.

As of 7 PM on June 24th, the center of the low-pressure area was located at approximately 22.6 degrees North latitude and 106.2 degrees East longitude, over the mountainous provinces of Northern Vietnam. The strongest winds at the center of the low-pressure area had decreased to below level 6 (i.e., below 39 km per hour).

Due to the influence of the storm, in the Gulf of Tonkin (including the island districts of Van Don, Co To, Cat Hai, and Bach Long Vi), there will be strong winds of force 6-7, near the storm's center force 8-9, gusting to force 11-12. The sea will be rough. Coastal areas of the northeastern provinces and Thanh Hoa will experience strong winds of force 6-7, near the storm's center force 8, gusting to force 10-11. Moderate to heavy rain, and in some places very heavy rain, is expected in the northern provinces and from Thanh Hoa to Quang Binh. Mountainous areas should be wary of flash floods and landslides.
