On April 26, after scattered light rain in some districts in Ho Chi Minh City this morning, many people thought the heat would cool down. However, at noon of the same day, the heat continued to occur widely.
According to Dan Tri reporter, at around 6:30 am on the same day, rain poured down on some areas of District 12, Go Vap, Tan Binh, Binh Thanh... Thu Duc City. The rain lasted about 5 minutes, in some places less than 1 minute.

Mr. Khanh (living in Binh Thanh District) said that this morning he was surprised by the rain after many days of intense heat. When the rain fell, he quickly went to collect the clothes that were drying.
"I was packing when the rain stopped. It rained for less than a minute. After the rain, the sun was hot again, with no sign of cooling down," said Mr. Khanh.
At the same time, in some areas of District 12, the rain lasted longer (about 5 minutes). Many people going to work in the morning did not have time to put on raincoats when the rain stopped.
At 12 o'clock, the weather recorded on the phone peaked at 38 degrees Celsius. However, the actual outdoor temperature measured on the phone application exceeded 40 degrees Celsius.
Speaking with Dan Tri reporter, Mr. Le Dinh Quyet, Head of the Southern Hydrometeorological Station, said that this morning's rain had small volume and narrow range.
The rain was not at the right location of the measuring device, so there was no information about the amount at the measuring stations. This afternoon, Ho Chi Minh City still experienced severe heat.
In the South and Ho Chi Minh City today, the heat has increased slightly compared to the past 24 hours. In the evening, there will be localized thunderstorms, mostly small amounts. The highest temperature is commonly from 37-39 degrees Celsius, some places above 39 degrees Celsius.
"The cause of the heat is due to the low pressure trough with an axis through the North connecting with the hot low pressure area that maintains strong activity. Above, the subtropical high pressure with an axis through the South Central region is operating stably," said Mr. Quyet.
