Pattaya Flooded for Over an Hour After Heavy Rain, Affecting Traffic

Pattaya City in Chonburi Province, Thailand, experienced widespread flooding on September 23rd after more than an hour of heavy rainfall. Several major roads within the city became submerged, making passage difficult, particularly for smaller vehicles. This situation has disrupted daily life for residents and affected the movement of tourists. Local authorities are working diligently to expedite drainage operations and manage traffic in the affected areas. However, the high volume of rain appears to have overwhelmed drainage systems in some locations. As Pattaya is a major tourist destination, the flooding could indirectly impact the tourism sector.
