According to the Mid-Central Region Centre for Hydro-meteorological Forecasting, the intense heat wave which has spread across Da Nang and elsewhere in the region over recent days will end by this evening due to the effects of cold air moving from the north down to the south of the country.

As a result, some regional localities, including Da Nang, will this evening (4 May) have scattered showers and thunderstorms which could cause lightning, whirlwinds, and strong winds.

In the late afternoon and evening tomorrow (5 May), coastal areas from Quang Binh to Quang Ngai provinces will experience scattered showers and thunderstorms.  The thunderstorms might result in lightning, whirlwinds, and strong southeasterly winds at levels 4 or 5.
