The Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM) issued a Cell Broadcast warning about rising water levels in Ban Kaeng, Wat Sai, Nakhon Sawan Tok, and Takien Luean subdistricts of Mueang Nakhon Sawan District, Nakhon Sawan Province. This is due to increasing water levels from Tha Khanom Jeen Canal and other canals, which may overflow their banks. Residents are advised to move belongings to higher ground.
On 2 October 2026, the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM) warned that water levels from Tha Khanom Jeen Canal and other canals in Ban Kaeng Subdistrict are rising and may overflow their banks.

Accordingly, the DDPM coordinated with mobile network providers AIS, True, and NT to send Cell Broadcast messages warning of rising water levels in Ban Kaeng, Wat Sai, Nakhon Sawan Tok, and Takien Luean subdistricts of Mueang Nakhon Sawan District, Nakhon Sawan Province.

Meanwhile, at 06:00 on 2 October 2026 in Nakhon Sawan Province, flood embankments in Village 1, Wat Sai Subdistrict, Mueang Nakhon Sawan District, failed to contain the water volume. Several breaches occurred, causing water to flow rapidly into downstream areas and spread widely into low-lying zones. In some locations, water levels exceeded one meter.
As a result, residents in the area have been affected by floodwaters entering homes and surrounding land. Water levels are expected to continue spreading. However, the water is still flowing into canals and floodplain areas, so the situation is not yet critical and is being closely monitored.
Mr. Krisana Wisutsesat, Chief Executive of Wat Sai Subdistrict Administrative Organization, along with local officials and related agencies, surveyed the situation, assessed the impact, and sought ways to assist residents. They are continuously monitoring water flow directions and levels to prepare for swift response and aid.
