More flash floods and landslides
are forecast to hit Viet Nam in 2017 than last year, especially in mountainous
areas in the northwest region, according to the National Centre for
Hydro-meteorological Forecasting (NCHMF). The impact of El Nino is likely to
cause more storms and tropical depressions in the East Sea, however, fewer will
make landfall in the country, said the centre. Tardy rainy season is expected
in the northern region while rains are predicted to start earlier in the
Central Highlands and southern regions. This year, rainfall will be lower than
the average level due to strong El Nino in the end of this year. Flood season
in the north is forecast to come later than usual while that in the Central
Highlands and Mekong Delta regions may take place earlier.
