A sudden and unseasonable downpour caused flooding in several areas in the Mekong Delta City of Can Tho late Saturday afternoon.
The downpour submerged roads in the central districts of Ninh Kieu and Binh Thuy. Several places saw 30-40cms of flood water which even flowed into houses.
In other provinces like Vinh Long, Hau Giang, Tra Vinh, Dong Thap and An Giang, heavy rain inundated thousands of hectares of the summer-autumn rice crop which has just been cultivated.
