Intensity is not exposure — named storms cross open ocean and near-empty atolls, while the widest human story, about 2.93 million affected in Thailand, comes from rain without a name..

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

Officials have directed additional water from upstream areas toward Nakhon Sawan while warning of possible river overflow as levels continue to rise. These reports align with the expected arrival of the flood crest in central Thailand and highlight the advance steps taken to manage the flow. The updates emphasize the growing risk to the region once the peak moves through.
