HANOI: The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting predicts that there will be widespread hot and intense heat across the country for at least two more days, until April 30. After that, the heat is expected to gradually ease starting from May 1.

This prolonged heatwave poses an increased risk of natural disasters, especially at level 1, with specific regions like Son La, Hoa Binh, and from Thanh Hoa to Phu Yen facing a level 2 risk.
