Risk of heavy rain with rainfall of over 100 mm in just 3 hours. Heavy rain in a short period of time, risk of flash floods, landslides in mountainous areas and flooding in urban areas and low-lying areas.

In addition, in the evening and night of August 5, Thanh Hoa and Nghe An may experience scattered showers and thunderstorms, with locally heavy rain.
