KUALA LUMPUR: Thunderstorms with heavy rain and strong winds are expected to occur in the waters of western Sabah and northern Sarawak for three days starting Thursday (July 13), says the Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia).
Based on the weather forecast issued by MetMalaysia at 2pm today , the situation is predicted to occur following a low-pressure system that is expected to develop in the west of the Philippines and will move northwest towards southern China.
"This situation is expected to cause an increase in the speed and concentration of westerly winds in the waters of western Sabah and northern Sarawak from July 13 to 15. "It has the potential to produce thunderstorms with heavy rain and strong winds in the area during that period,” it said in a statement.
MetMalaysia has also issued a strong winds and rough seas warning for the waters of South China Sea from July 15 to 18.
