HCMC’s expat hub Thao Dien flooded after heavy rain

In Hung’s neighboring house, tenants used wooden barriers to block the water and buckets to scoop it out manually.

According to the Southern Regional Hydrometeorological Center, high-altitude wind disturbances triggered heavy rainfall across several districts in HCMC, with rainfall exceeding 50 mm in some areas. In the coming days, southern Vietnam is expected to see continued heavy rain.

Additionally, the development of strong convective clouds contributed to thunderstorms and lightning across many parts of the city. Authorities advised residents to avoid parking or seeking shelter under trees and to stay clear of metal objects or electrical conductors during thunderstorms.
