Emergency Flood Relief for Hue, Vietnam (November 2025)

Between October 25–30, 2025, the city of Hue experienced extreme and prolonged rainfall due to a combination of a strengthened cold front and high-altitude eastern wind disturbances.

  • 24-hour rainfall peak: 1,739.6 mm at Bach Ma – surpassing the previous national record of 1,085.8 mm/24h.

The torrential rains caused two major floods on the Bo and Huong Rivers, resulting in widespread inundation across 32 communes and wards.

  • Average water depth: 1–1.5 meters, with some areas exceeding 2 meters.
  • Urban roads and provincial routes were completely paralyzed for several days.
