Bangkok: The Meteorological Department has issued a warning for northern Thailand, urging residents to be cautious of summer storms predicted to last until February 25th. The warning comes after a severe storm hit Nakhon Ratchasima province, causing significant disruption.

According to Thai News Agency, the recent summer storm wreaked havoc in Nakhon Ratchasima, particularly affecting vendors in Ban Lat Bua Khao, Moo 2, Lat Bua Khao Subdistrict, Sikhiu District. Strong winds and heavy rain nearly blew away tents set up by vendors as they were conducting business. The Meteorological Department predicts similar weather patterns in upper Thailand from February 23-25, 2026, with expectations of thunderstorms, strong winds, and hail, especially in the northeastern region.

Images shared on the "Pong Daeng Stories" Facebook page depicted the storm's impact in Pong Daeng Subdistrict, Kham Thale So District, where heavy rain and fierce winds were reported. Authorities have issued warnings to several districts, including Ban San Kamphaeng, Ban Takob, Ban Khok Samran, and Ban Salao Pho in Wang Nam Khiao District, as well as Ban Wang Sai in Pak Chong District. Residents are advised to remain vigilant and prepared for severe weather conditions that may arise during this period.
