Bangkok's governor declared the Thai capital a disaster-affected zone on Saturday after nearly 300mm of rain fell in 48 hours, flooding major roads and forcing residents to wade through waist-high water. The government said the situation had stabilised but warned drainage could take two to three days if rain holds off. The army is assisting relief efforts, schools serve as shelters, and Suvarnabhumi airport is operating normally.
