HEAVY DOWNPOURS
THAI NEWS AGENCY
NAN : About 200 families in a remote village in Bo Klue district were cut off after landslides blocked the only access road, and five cows were washed away as heavy rains have pounded this northern province over the past two days.
District and relief officers have been working to clear the eight-metre stretch of road leading to Napong village. It was buried by landslides.
Rain continued to lash many parts of the province yesterday. Riverine communities were told to brace for flash floods.
Water levels in many rivers were climbing quickly. Some rivers had burst their banks and flooded part of tambon Bo Klue Tai in the same district.
Five cows left near the river bank went missing.
The Meteorological Department yesterday forecast more heavy rain throughout the country due to a stronger monsoon in the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand.
Phangnga, Trang and Satun were at risk of floods and mountain run-off.
