@peter_s._mars: Bangkok is currently experiencing significant flooding due to heavy monsoon rains and overwhelmed drainage systems: 🌧️ Flash Flood Alerts As of September 6–11, the Thai Meteorological Department issued warnings for 49 provinces, including Bangkok, with a 70% chance of flash floods and landslides. Thunderstorms are covering most of the city, and rainfall has exceeded 100 mm in some areas. 🚇 Urban Impact Flooding affected key infrastructure, including the Thailand Cultural Centre MRT Station, where water overflowed into the concourse level, forcing commuters to wade through water. Roads in Huai Kwang, Rama 9, Phatthanakan, and Ramkhamhaeng were also inundated. 🌊 Long-Term Crisis Experts warn that Bangkok faces an existential flood threat due to land subsidence, rising sea levels, and the loss of natural floodplains. Without major infrastructure changes, large parts of the city could be submerged by 2030. #USA #tourism #Europe #ASEAN #heavyrain
