Previously Mr Wiboon Sanguanpong, DDPM Director-General, also said that the flood situation is widespread in the southern region, affecting over 130,000 residents. Flash floods have struck Ranong, Chumphon, Surat Thani, Krabi, Phang Nga and Nakhon Si Thammarat provinces, with villages along the Tapi River still severely flooded. The floods have damaged a number of houses, crops, public roads and bridges. However, improvements have been reported in some parts of Ranong, Chumphon and Phang Nga, with rehabilitation works underway. Based on Pattaya mail Flooding in Thailand‘ northern provinces continues due to heavy rain and the overflowing Yom River. The Yom River has overflowed into a number of villages and damaged about 4,000 acres of farmland in Sukhothai. Overnight heavy rain forced local residents in Pakpra subdistrict in the provincial seat to evacuate to temporary shelter in tents on higher ground beside a roadway Tuesday night. Based on Bangkok post: Almost 100 people in Sukhothai‘ Muang district were forced to evacuate their homes Tuesday following several breaches in the Yom River dyke. Parts of neighbouring Phitsanulok province have also been hit by floods after Yom River water levels rose rapidly due to heavy downpours in the North. Overflow from two canals _ the Klong Klam and Khlong Ket _ in Bang Rakam district, which are linked to the river, has flooded about 2,000 rai of land.

The ASEAN Disaster Information Network (ADINet) is a repository of information concerning hazards and disasters that have happened in the region. The platform is open for public, which means that the public can submit information about any hazard and disaster to the AHA Centre. Thereafter, the AHA Centre will verify and validate any submitted information to ensure the accuracy of the data inputs. The AHA Centre can also add new information when relevant and as necessary. ADINet has been recording disaster information in the region since the AHA Centre was operational in 2012.
