Pattaya –
Heavy rain in Pattaya for more than one hour on Saturday morning (August 17th) caused mostly minor flooding and damage in many areas.
The rain started at 7:30 A.M. and continued for more than one hour. The heavy rain caused many roads to flood such as the Pattaya Beach Road, Soi Khao Noi, Soi Khao Talo and Sukhumvit Pattaya Road. Floodwater also approached some houses in the local area.
Especially in the Soi Khao Tao and Sukhumvit Pattaya 87 Road area, water was up to 50 centimeters which caused traffic chaos. A motorbike was swept away and a car was also damaged by the flood. The Pattaya City Traffic Police assisted road users all the time until flood waters receded.
