Hailstorm hits Da Sar and Da Nhim communes in Lac Duong District of Lam Dong Province, causing significant damage to local outdoor vegetable and flower growers. |

The hailstones, which had a diameter of approximately 1-2cm, destroyed many cabbage fields that were ready to be harvested, rendering them irreparable. Ha Tam, a farmer from Da Sar Commune, estimated that his family had suffered hundreds of millions of Vietnamese dong in damages because of the hailstorm, which lasted for about an hour from 2:30 p.m.
The majority of outdoor production areas affected by the hail experienced crop losses, and authorities are currently assessing the extent of the damage.
