The storm brought further heavy rainfall to central provinces of Vietnam. Ta Long in Qang Tri province recorded 210 mm of rain, and Quang Dien and A Luoi in Thua Thien-Hue both saw 182mm in a 24 hour period to 12 October. Central Vietnam has been plagued by heavy rain since around 05 October, with many provinces seeing severe flooding and landslides.
15 dead after 7 days of floods
Some areas of central Vietnam have seen over 1.5 metres of rain in the last week. In a period from 05 to 11 October, Huong Linh in Qang Tri province recorded 1,520 mm of rain and A Luoi in Thua Thien-Hue 1,888 mm.
As of 12 October, Vietnam's Disaster Management Authority (DMA) reports that severe flooding and landslides in the central region have left at least 15 people dead, with a further 3 lives lost in shipping incidents. Floods and landslides have left 10 others missing since the start of the severe weather spell. Four people are still missing at sea.
Fatalities were reported in Qang Tri province (6), Thua Thien-Hue (3), Quang Nam (3), as well as in Da Nang, Quang Binh and Quang Ngai on the central coast and Gia Lai, Dak Lak and Lam Dong in the Central Highlands.
A total 109,034 houses have been flooded in 206 communes in Ha Tinh, Quang Nam, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, and Thua Thien-Hue provinces and Da Nang City. DMA said 382 homes have been completely destroyed.
Flooding has also forced 45,835 people to evacuate their homes, with almost 20,000 of them in Quang Tri Province, and a further 20,000 in Thua Thien Hue Province. Evacuations were also carried out in Quang Binh (871 people), Da Nang (2,953), Quang Nam (1,677) and Quang Ngai (912).
Flooding is expected to continue, with more heavy rainfall on the way.
As the climate engineers continue to force the climate system to ever greater extremes of temperature imbalances, the biosphere's ability to cope is rapidly breaking down. In addition to the temperature extremes, there is the issue of the highly toxic geoengineering/solar radiation management fallout that is contaminating the entire surface of the planet and every breath we take.
Global climate engineering is weather warfare, and biological warfare, nothing less. Geoengineering is not mitigating the overall planetary warming of our oceans, seas, lakes & land mass, it is actually fueling it. In their increasingly desperate attempt to mask the unfolding climate crisis from the public, the climate engineers are tearing Earth's life support systems apart.
