Although Cambodia is not located directly on the path of Storm No. 26, Surigae, and Storm No. 27, Choi-wan, the indirect effects of both storms will bring noticeable weather changes across the country, according to an announcement issued by the Ministry of Water Resources and Meteorology on the morning of October 2, 2026. The announcement confirmed that from October 2 to October 4, 2026, this influence will cause scattered rainfall mixed with thunder, lightning, and gusty winds in some areas.
Based on these weather conditions, provinces in the highland region will be most affected, with rainfall possibly covering up to 50% of the land area and temperatures ranging from 24°C to 31°C. In the lowland plain region, temperatures will range from 25°C to 33°C, with rainfall likely covering about 30% of the land area.
In the coastal region, temperatures will range from 25°C to 34°C, with rainfall possibly covering about 20% of the land area. At the same time, waves at sea could reach heights of 0.50 meters to 1.75 meters, requiring fishermen and waterway travelers to exercise heightened caution against these natural events and prevent unforeseen accidents.
