Specifically, from February to April 2024, the East Sea is less likely to have storms or tropical depressions. Cold air is weaker, so severe cold may occur in February and March 2024 at a lower level than the average of many years in the same period.
"However, it is necessary to be on guard against strong cold spells, especially in February 2024, causing widespread cold and frost and the risk of frost and snow in the mountainous areas of the North. In addition, light rain and drizzle in the North during the 2023-2024 winter-spring season are likely to occur more frequently than the average of many years," the meteorological agency informed.

Also during these 3 months, the North and Central regions may experience dangerous weather phenomena such as thunderstorms, tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind, especially during the Northeast monsoon season that blows down to our country. The Central Highlands and the South should be on guard against thunderstorms, tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind during the transitional months (April and May 2024).
Heat waves in the South (concentrated in the East), the Northwest, the North and the Central regions are likely to come earlier and appear more frequently than the average of many years.
From February to April 2024, nationwide, the average temperature will be about 1-1.5 degrees Celsius higher than the average of many years.
Regarding the drought situation, the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting said that the Central Highlands and the South from February to April 2024 are unlikely to have unseasonal rain, so the drought situation will continue during this period.
From May to June 2024, storms or tropical depressions are unlikely to appear in the East Sea, but may appear in July 2024, potentially affecting the northern provinces of our country.
Heat waves will continue to occur in the Central Highlands and the South in the first half of May 2024, then gradually decrease from the second half of the month. In the North and Central regions, heat waves and severe heat waves are forecast to occur more frequently than the average of many years, so be on guard against especially severe heat waves. In 3 months (from May to July 2024), the average temperature across the country will generally be 0.5-1.5 degrees Celsius higher than the average of many years.
The rainy season in the North, Central Highlands and South appears in accordance with the climate law. In particular, in June-July 2024, the southwest monsoon tends to be stronger than average.
