Rainy and cold conditions are prevailing in Da Nang and elsewhere in the mid-central region as the cold air intensifies and spills into the region, according to the Mid-Central Region Centre for Hydro-meteorological Forecasting.

Wednesday morning into late Thursday, Da Nang is anticipated to brace for moderate and heavy downpours.

The city will see day-time temperatures drop to 18-20 degrees Celsius with chilly nights, and even plummet more in its mountainous areas.

Under the influence of the cold snap, north-northwestern winds levels 3-4 are expected to appear in the mainland of the city, whilst winds levels 6-7, and heavy rough seas are likely to be seen off the coast off the city.

North-easterly winds levels 6-7, with a gust of level 8, and very rough sea is reported off the Hoang Sa islands.
