Long Xuyen sits in the low, flat Mekong Delta, where the wet season from May to November combines heavy monsoon rainfall with the annual rise and fall of the Mekong River itself.
Sitting on the Hau (Bassac) River branch of the Mekong, the city’s rice-growing surroundings flood seasonally as the river’s annual flood pulse arrives. Because so much of the delta sits barely above sea level, flooding here can come from direct rainfall, river discharge, and tidal influence from the coast all at once, which is why local flood tracking leans on both river gauges and rain radar together.
