Yahoo TV Heavy downpour floods Vietnam's capital Hanoi
STORY: Downpours have pounded Hanoi since early Thursday morning, submerging streets, Reuters witnesses said, with traffic turning chaotic at intersections and flood waters rising calf-high in some districts.
Parts of Hanoi recorded up to 10 inches (250 mm) of rain on Thursday morning, according to the national weather center.
The premier's office directed provincial authorities to take action to protect residential areas that faced a high risk of landslides and flash floods.
Vietnam is prone to destructive storms and flooding, with 451 people killed or missing last year in natural disasters such as floods and landslides, according to government statistics.
Flooding has become more frequent in Hanoi, as the road and drainage systems struggle to accommodate a rapidly growing population.
