The Office of the National Water Resources (ONWR) has issued a warning to residents along the Chao Phraya and Noi rivers in Ayutthaya, Thailand, that water levels could rise by about 10 centimetres on Sunday. This rise in water levels is attributed to runoff moving downstream from the Chao Phraya Dam, which is due to declining flows from the Ping and Nan rivers into the Chao Phraya basin.
While the main protected areas in Pathum Thani, Nonthaburi, Bangkok, and Samut Prakan are not expected to be affected, some low-lying areas and communities outside flood embankments may still be impacted. The Meteorological Department has forecast heavy rain in Kaeng Krachan district of Phetchaburi, which may require increased releases from Kaeng Krachan Dam.
