In early September, torrential rains brought by a tropical depression were recorded from Nghe An to Thua Thien-Hue. In many areas, total rainfall rose to over 1,000mm, causing widespread flooding in low areas, leading to heavy loss in human lives and property.

As of September 4, at least four people were killed and eight others remain missing in the provinces. The hardest-hit localities were Ha Tinh, Quang Binh and Quang Tri.

Recent heavy rains have also badly damaged hundreds of schools in the Central provinces of Quang Binh, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, preventing teachers and students from going to school.
