這場災難的成因歸結於極端天氣現象的匯聚,包括強勁的東北季風湧入與冷空氣的侵入,這些因素在長山山脈(Truong Son range)上引發了劇烈的地形抬升作用,從而加劇了降雨強度。在救援方面,國防部已動員了近45,000名人員和2,200輛車輛投入搶救工作。在先前11月中旬的災情中,已有超過62,000名居民被緊急疏散。
Spring is expected to officially arrive in Japan this week with the start of the #CherryBlossom season. According to the Japanese Meteorological Agency the blooms will arrive earlier this year because of a warmer than average winter. 🌸🌸🌸
