The Southern region is forecast to enter the rainy season in mid-April, earlier than every year.
From March 30 to April 7, the Southern region will experience sunny days along with thundery showers at nighttime.
In recent days, the ultraviolet (UV) index in Ho Chi Minh City, Can Tho and Ca Mau reached very high at 8-10, being high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. From March 29, it is forecast that three localities will continue to suffer from moderate-to-very high UV radiation levels of 6-10.
From now to mid-April, more extreme heat waves are warned to appear in the Southern provinces and cities on the large scale.
