Areas not listed have no flood report found in the years covered, which does not mean they never flooded. Online news before 2022 is sparse, so early years are under-reported.

Where this data comes from

Every number on this page traces back to a news source
  1. Flood news for Phuket from Thai and English outlets plus official notices, from 2016 onward
  2. Only what the article states is extracted: date, flooded spots, water depth (only when a figure is given) and drainage works — nothing is estimated
  3. Every entry keeps the quoted passage and the source link · entries reported by at least two outlets for the same area and day are marked A
  4. Areas are at sub-district or neighbourhood level, not individual developments · updated once a year after the rainy season
Compiled from 21 outlets · 406 reports (281 confirmed by at least two outlets) · last checked 16 Sept 2026 This shows where flooding was reported, not that every home in the area flooded. Water depth varies greatly within a few hundred metres, and a year with no report does not mean no flooding. Ask neighbours and check the development's ground level before deciding.

Want to know if tomorrow is risky?

This page only shows where flooding was reported in the past; it does not forecast. For the next 24 hours, Google Flood Hub has an urban flash-flood forecast covering Phuket (still a beta — Google itself says it is approximate, for information only, and that official warnings take precedence).
