Tam Ky lies on Vietnam’s south-central coast, where a distinct rainy season runs from September through December, later than the rest of the country, as the northeast monsoon picks up moisture over the South China Sea before reaching shore.
Sitting on the Tam Ky River in Quang Nam, the city’s low-lying downtown floods periodically during the autumn storm season. Typhoons and tropical depressions that stall off this coast can dump extremely heavy rain in a short time, so radar imagery is widely used alongside official warnings to track how a storm’s rain bands are moving.
