(Bandar Seri Begawan, 20th) Brunei has officially entered the Northeast Monsoon season, a weather pattern expected to last until March 2026.
According to the Brunei Meteorological Department, active weather conditions are expected to continue until this Sunday (November 23), with intermittent heavy rain and thunderstorms forecast for many parts of the country, especially in the late afternoon to nighttime period. During or near periods of heavy rain and thunderstorms, wind speeds may reach up to 45 km/h. Brunei's nearshore sea conditions are expected to be slight to moderate, with wave heights ranging from 0.6 to 1.8 meters.
The Meteorological Department reminds the public to be prepared in advance and to be alert to potentially severe weather. Persistent heavy rainfall combined with high tide periods may result in sudden flash floods in low-lying and riverside areas; strong winds and heavy rain may also lead to landslides, fallen trees, and roof damage. Moderate sea conditions could pose risks for small vessels, leisure activities, and water sports.
The Meteorological Department urges the public, motorists, and seafarers to closely monitor the latest weather forecasts, alerts, and warnings, and to take necessary safety precautions. The Meteorological Department will continue to monitor weather developments and issue relevant notices in a timely manner.
