The south-central coast is bracing itself for tropical storm Mirinae which is moving towards the East Sea and is forecast to hit south-central provinces in a couple of days.

At 16.00 on October 30, Mirinae was positioned at 14.8 degrees north latitude and 124.1 degrees east longitude, about 270 km east of the Philippines’ Luzon island. It was packing winds of between 118-133km/h near its centre.

According to the National Hydro-meteorological Forecasting Centre, in the next 24 hours the storm is forecast to move between west and south-west at a speed of 20-25km/h. It will enter the East Sea on the morning of October 31 and cause rough seas.

Meanwhile, a cold snap is moving toward Vietnam and is expected to affect the northern and north-central regions on November 1. It will bring rains and cause rough seas in the Bac Bo (Tonkin) Gulf.
