According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, this morning (July 16), a low pressure area in the eastern part of the Philippines has strengthened into a tropical depression.
At 7:00 a.m. on July 16, the center of the tropical depression was at about 14.1 degrees North latitude; 131.8 degrees East longitude, about 1,000 km east-southeast of Luzon Island (Philippines). The strongest wind near the center of the tropical depression was level 6 (39-49 km/h), gusting to level 8; moving slowly in the West-Northwest direction at a speed of about 5-10 km/h.
It is forecasted that in the next 1-2 days, this tropical depression will continue to move in a West-Northwest direction and is likely to strengthen into a storm. After strengthening into a storm in the northern area of Luzon Island (Philippines), the storm strengthened from this tropical depression will pass over the northern area of Luzon Island (Philippines) and enter the East Sea on the weekend (July 19-20).
East Sea is about to welcome a storm, the North is at risk of heavy rain
The situation is still complicated and needs to be closely monitored.
Currently, the tropical depression is still in the formation stage and has not yet become a storm. The dominant atmospheric systems such as the southwest monsoon, subtropical high pressure... are still fluctuating and unstable, causing the trajectory and intensity of this system to potentially fluctuate. When it strengthens into a storm and moves into the East Sea, the storm may move West Northwest, towards the North of the Gulf of Tonkin in the coming days with a probability of about 50-60%.
The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting is closely monitoring and will promptly update in the following bulletins to serve the direction and response of all levels and sectors.
Immediate warning about dangerous weather at sea
In addition, due to the influence of the tropical convergence zone connected to the tropical depression/storm circulation (potentially moving into the East Sea), the East Sea area (including the Hoang Sa and Truong Sa special zones) from July 19-20 will have strong winds, high waves, and rough seas.
With the scenario of moving West Northwest and if heading towards the mainland of our country, be on guard for the risk of widespread heavy rain in the Northern region and provinces from Thanh Hoa to Nghe An in the period from July 20 to July 25, 2025.
The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting recommends that authorities, people and forces operating at sea need to regularly monitor updated news, proactively prepare prevention plans and promptly respond to any possible situations.
