Thua Thien-Hue authorities have also called for boats operating at sea to immediately seek safe havens to avoid heavy rains and strong winds. Boats have also been banned from going to sea from Monday morning.
The heavy rains which are caused by effects of a low tropical pressure are forecasted to spread to the whole central and northern central region for several more days.
