Immediately after the storm hit, the Commune Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention and Control mobilized forces to work 24/7, evacuating 20 households in the hamlets of Ban Loa, Pu Do, and Vinh Khai out of the danger zone; supporting the relocation of property and livestock for 18 households. Police and militia forces were deployed at key points to handle traffic incidents, and put up warning ropes on deeply flooded roads to ensure people's safety.

The rain has stopped in the area, however due to the low-lying terrain, water from the caves has accumulated, so the water level in some hamlets continues to rise, with no signs of receding.
