Early morning of September 25, the storm will move into the Gulf of Tonkin. The storm intensity in the Gulf of Tonkin will remain at level 11-12, gusting to level 14-15.
On September 25, the storm made landfall directly in the Northern region with strong winds of level 10-11, gusting to level 12-13 along the coast, and level 8-9, gusting to level 10-11 on land.
"Storm Ragasa is very strong at sea, with a very wide range of strong winds and waves over 10m high, making it especially dangerous for ships operating in the northern East Sea.
The storm may cause heavy rain in the Northern provinces and Thanh Hoa and Nghe An with rainfall of about 150-250 mm, locally over 400 mm, risk of flash floods, landslides, affecting the safety of dams, flooding in urban areas and low-lying areas.
Right after storm Ragasa, there is a risk that storm No. 10 will continue to move into the East Sea, potentially directly impacting our country's sea and land, affecting production activities at sea," the dispatch stated.

To proactively respond to storm No. 9, ensure people's lives and reduce property damage to people and the State, the Prime Minister requested the Secretaries and Chairmen of People's Committees of provinces and cities, especially coastal localities from Quang Ninh to Thanh Hoa (where strong winds are forecasted to occur), to focus on leading and directing the implementation of measures to ensure safety for vessels operating at sea, along the coast and activities at sea, on islands, along the coast and inland.
Implement measures to protect houses, warehouses, factories, headquarters of agencies, units, educational and medical facilities, dike systems, dams, infrastructure works, production and business activities, especially agricultural production and aquaculture at sea and along the coast with the motto "green house is better than old field".
