(Bloomberg) – The tropical storm of Wipha is slowly playing towards Vietnam and on Tuesday it is ready to cross the coast near the northern port city of Haiphong and brings heavy rain that could lead to a flood.
Wipha strengthened as he moved over the warm waters in the Gulf of Tonkin overnight, but interaction with nearby soil and persistent cross winds maintained its intensification under control, according to the common warning center of the US Navy. JTWC rated the highest permanent winds of the storm to 93 kilometers (58 miles) per hour, putting it under the force of typhoid.
The Vietnamese government warned against possible floods in industrial zones where companies like Samsung Electronics Co., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. – known as Foxconn – A Luxshare Precision Industry Co.
The North Delta area and parts of the provinces in the northern center will see heavy rain and thunderstorms on Wednesday, with some places gaining more than 300 millimeters (12 inches), according to the Vietnamese weather agency.
The International Van Don and Cat Bi in Quang Ninh and Haiphong was temporarily closed late on Monday evening, with the operations renewed after Wipha causes Landfall to follow the interior. The Hanoi authorities also evacuated the inhabitants of an apartment building considered particularly susceptible to a storm, the local outlet Vnexpress reported.
Last week, Wipha developed as an area of low pressure east of the Philippines before Hong Kong welcomes the wind with windows on Sunday as she watched south of the city of Tyhoon. The system then surrounded the mainland China, temporarily moved inland and headed west towards Vietnam.
