According to the forecast of the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, tonight, the tropical depression will move into the East Sea and is likely to strengthen into storm No. 5.
On August 25, the storm will move inland in the Central region of our country. Due to the influence of the storm, in the northern area of the East Sea (including Hoang Sa special zone), from August 23, there will be strong winds of level 6-7, then increasing to level 8-9, from August 24, strong winds of level 9-10, waves from 4-6m high, the sea area from Thanh Hoa to Da Nang will have strong storm winds of level 8, the area near the storm center will have winds of level 11-12, gusting to level 15.
