In the next 24 to 48 hours, Noru is forecast to move west at a maximum speed of 25 kilometers per hour and continue intensifying. By 10 a.m. on September 28, the typhoon will slam the Central provinces from Thua Thien- Hue to Quang Ngai with sustained winds between 103 and 133 kilometers an hour, influencing offshore waters from Quang Binh to Ninh Thuan including island districts of Con Co, Cu Lao Cham and Ly Son, and coastal waters of the localities from Thua Thien - Hue to Binh Dinh.

All vessels, sea embankments, aquaculture farming areas and other activities at sea are under the impacts of gales, big waves, cyclones and rising seawater.  

Within next 48 to 72 hours, the fourth storm will go westerly at around 20-25 kilometers per hour and may be expected to gradually downgrade into a tropical depression and a low-pressure zone after it enters mid-Central mainland Vietnam. 

From September 29, two Central Highlands provinces of Kon Tum and Gia Lai will brace for increasing winds.

Under the impact of the super storm, the entire Central provinces and cities such as Quang Tri, Thua Thien-Hue, Da Nang, Quang Nam, Quang Ngai and Binh Dinh will suffer from heavy rainfalls of 250-400 mm.
