Frost covered many trees in a district in Nghe An Province, north-central Vietnam early on Sunday morning as temperature dropped to below zero degrees Celsius due to the effect of a cold front.
The temperature in Ky Son District, Nghe An dropped to below zero degrees Celsius between Saturday night and Sunday morning, causing frost to blanket trees and house roofs.
The lowest mercury in the locality was recorded at Buoc Mu Border Station, located about 1,900 meters above sea level.
“More blankets and heat preservation items have been provided to the soldiers on duty at the station,” according to Nguyen Van Hoa, a local border guard official.

Temperatures in the western part of Nghe An Province have been decreasing over the past few days due to a strong cold spell.
Local border guard officers have been mobilized to assist residents in protecting themselves and their cattle from the frigid weather.
Snow as thick as 20 centimeters was previously recorded in several locales in Ky Son District in 2016.
