All the trees and objects that had been caught in the water were covered in a white layer of ice. "The wind is very strong now, and many of the ice blocks on the trees have started to fall off," Mr. Vinh added.

In addition to Phia Oac, it is likely that tonight some mountain peaks over 1,500 m above sea level may have ice, as cold air is intensifying and temperatures in the North are gradually dropping.
The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting said the cold spell will last until January 25, with temperatures in the Northern Delta at 7-10 degrees Celsius and in mountainous areas below 0 degrees Celsius.
