Synoptic situation

The main change with the previous days is that the low pressure system over the North of India is gradually filling and getting weaker. An important result of this is that the advection of the warm, moist airmass has become very weak towards the North of Myanmar but is still going to the Southern parts. This means that especially the Northern regions will gradually get drier weather whilst the Southern and Southwestern regions remain prone for rain and showers. Especially the coastal areas of Ayeyarwady. On the MSL pressure map valid +48 you can see the tropical cyclone heading towards Taiwan-Thursday night.

Warnings

- heavy precipitation at Hakha

Precipitation

Synoptic situation

The main change with the previous days is that the low pressure system over the North of India is gradually filling  nd getting weaker. An important result of this is that the advection of the warm, moist airmass has become very weak towards the North of Myanmar but is still going to the Southern parts. This means that especially the Northern regions will gradually get drier weather whilst the Southern and Southwestern regions remain prone for rain and showers. Especially the coastal areas of Ayeyarwady. 
On the MSL pressure map valid +48 you can see the tropical cyclone heading towards Taiwan-Thursday night.
