Heavy rain since Thursday has left eastern Bangkok deeply flooded, with all local canals full and 15 main roads underwater as of Saturday morning, per Governor Chadchart Sittipunt. Districts such as Min Buri, Klong Sam Wa and Saphan Sung recorded nearly 300 mm. The governor urged people near canals to move valuables and vehicles to high ground, since more rain is expected from Nonthaburi and Pathum Thani. Sandbags are available at district offices. If rain stops, floodwater should recede in about six hours. For a business, plan deliveries and staff travel around the flooded roads (including Srinagarindra, Lat Phrao, Sukhumvit Bang Na to Udomsuk and Ram Intra), and protect stock and vehicles stored at low levels.
