Cambodia to suffer from impacts of 2 tropical storms in coming days

Cambodia's Ministry of Water Resources and Meteorology (MWRM) announced on Tuesday that the country will suffer from the impacts of two tropical storms in coming days.

 

Tropical storm Etau is forecast to track across southern Vietnam and eastern Cambodia on Nov. 10 before weakening into a depression, the MWRM said in a statement, adding that Etau's impact will cause moderate-to-heavy rainfall in plain, plateau and coastal regions on Nov. 11 and 12.

 

The other storm is Vamco that occurred in the Philippines and it will batter central Vietnam on Nov. 15 before weakening into a depression that will bring light-to-moderate rainfall in Cambodia from Nov. 15 to 17, the MWRM said.

 

"In the coastal areas, sea waves will be fairly high," the ministry said, urging the public to be extra-vigilant to avoid any possible dangers.
