(Photo: Nittaya Nattayai)City Hall on Monday warned people living along the Chao Phraya River in areas with no permanent barriers to prepare for flooding next week. The flood risk would come from the rising Chao Phraya river and forecast high tides, as more water was discharged from the Chao Phraya Dam, upstream from Bangkok in Chai Nat province, during the 11 days. The BMA did not name the flood prone areas of the city outside the embankment zone. Data from 2022 showed these areas as including parts of Dusit, Phra Nakhon, Samphanthawong, Bang Kholaem, Yanawa, Bangkok Noi and Klong San districts.
