The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting announced that from 5 to 12/7, a low-pressure trough combined with a low-pressure vortex brought multiple days of rainstorms to Bac Bo. Widespread moderate to heavy rain occurred on 8-9/7, with some mountainous areas experiencing very heavy rainfall.
As the low-pressure trough weakens, rain in Bac Bo is expected to decrease rapidly, becoming localized from now until 17/7. Days will be sunny, with temperatures generally ranging from 33-35 degrees Celsius, and some areas possibly experiencing hot weather.
A new low-pressure trough is forecast to form and intensify from 18/7. Around 19/7, Bac Bo could see widespread rainstorms, with many areas experiencing moderate to heavy rain that is expected to persist for several subsequent days.
AccuWeather forecasts that Ha Noi's temperature early next week will drop by 3-5 degrees Celsius compared to today, fluctuating between 27-31 degrees Celsius mid-week before gradually climbing to a high of about 37 degrees Celsius by the weekend. In Sa Pa, Lao Cai, temperatures are generally expected to be 19-25 degrees Celsius.

Hot weather in Ha Noi on 24/6. *Tung Dinh*.
From now until the end of 13/7, the region stretching from Thanh Hoa to Hue City will experience scattered showers and thunderstorms, with rainfall typically ranging from 10-30 mm, and isolated areas receiving over 80 mm. Subsequently, rain will gradually diminish, and widespread hot weather has not yet emerged in the area.
Tay Nguyen and Nam Bo remain under the influence of the southwest monsoon. Until 15/7, both regions will continue to experience afternoon and evening rainstorms, with typical rainfall of 15-30 mm, and some areas receiving over 100 mm.
On 16-17/7, a temporary reduction in rain is expected as the southwest monsoon weakens. However, from 18-19/7, the monsoon will re-intensify, leading to widespread rainstorms, with many localities experiencing moderate to heavy rainfall.
Heavy rains from 8 to 11/7 caused significant damage across Bac Bo's mountainous and midland provinces. According to the Department of Dyke Management and Disaster Prevention, one person was injured when a rockslide struck an oto in Son La. The storms also resulted in 7 collapsed houses, 190 damaged homes, and the urgent evacuation of 90 households due to landslide risks. Additionally, 137 houses were either flooded or impacted by landslides.
The flooding also destroyed over 935 hectares of rice and other crops. Dozens of livestock and hundreds of poultry were killed or swept away, while nearly 14 hectares of aquaculture farms were affected. Numerous national and provincial roads experienced landslides and flooding, leading to traffic disruptions that have since been remedied. Furthermore, thousands of meters of irrigation canals, along with various infrastructure projects, schools, and power systems, sustained damage. Over 4,000 households in Son La initially lost power, which has since been restored.
