(Bandar Seri Begawan, 21st) Brunei is expected to experience active weather conditions from December 20th to 25th, during which there will be intermittent heavy rain and thunderstorms, especially affecting multiple areas in the evening and at night, with the possibility of continuing into the early hours of the next morning.
Wind speeds during thunderstorms are expected to reach up to 45 km per hour. For sea areas, Brunei’s coastal waters will generally experience light to moderate waves, with heights between 0.4 meters and 1.2 meters. According to a statement issued by the Brunei Meteorological Department under the Ministry of Transport and Infocommunications, Brunei is currently in the Northeast Monsoon season, which is expected to last until March 2026.
The public is urged to make preparations in advance for the active weather, and in particular to be vigilant for flash floods in low-lying flood-prone and riverside areas during periods of persistent heavy rain. Ongoing rainfall and strong winds may also lead to landslides, falling trees, and roofs being blown off. Rough sea conditions also pose risks to small vessels, sea recreational activities, and water activities. The public, especially road users and participants in marine activities,
should always pay attention to the latest weather forecasts, advice, and warnings issued by the Meteorological Department, and make appropriate arrangements to ensure safety. The Meteorological Department will continue to monitor weather conditions and issue the latest advice and warnings as necessary. To receive timely weather updates, the public may download the BruneiWX mobile application for the latest notifications.
