Nghe An responds to bad weather at sea and widespread heavy rain

According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, from July 13-14, there is a possibility of a low pressure area forming, which may then develop into a tropical depression in the North and Central East Sea (including the waters of the Hoang Sa archipelago). At the same time, it is forecasted that from July 14-16, the North and Central Central regions are likely to experience a widespread period of moderate to heavy rain.

To proactively respond, the Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention - Search and Rescue and Civil Defense of Nghe An province requests the People's Committees of districts, cities, towns and related units to:

Closely monitor warning bulletins and forecasts of strong winds, large waves at sea and widespread heavy rain; notify captains and owners of vehicles and vessels operating at sea to proactively prevent and have appropriate production plans, ensuring safety of people and property; maintain communication to promptly handle bad situations that may occur.

Organize inspections and reviews of residential areas along rivers, streams, low-lying areas, and areas at high risk of flooding, flash floods, and landslides to proactively prevent and organize the evacuation of people when situations arise.

Prepare forces and means to deploy rescue work when there is a situation.

Organize serious on-duty shifts, closely monitor weather and natural disaster developments, regularly compile reports to the Provincial Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention - Search and Rescue and Civil Defense (through the Standing Office).
