HANOI — A tropical storm is forecast to make landfall in central Vietnam late on Thursday, bringing torrential rains that could trigger dangerous floods, the government's weather agency said, shortly after northern regions were hit by the powerful Typhoon Yagi.

The storm, called Storm No 4 in Vietnam, is forecast to hit the coast from Quang Tri to Quang Nam province in the evening with wind gusts of up to 102 kilometers (63 miles) an hour, the agency said in a report.

The Southeast Asian country has been reeling from the impacts of Typhoon Yagi, the strongest storm to hit Asia this year, which made landfall in northern Vietnam nearly two weeks ago. The typhoon killed more than 290 people and caused property damages of around $1.6 billion.

Storm No 4 will trigger rains of between 100 to 300 millimeters (4 to 12 inches) from Thursday to Friday in central Vietnam, including in the tourism destination of Danang, the agency said in the report.
