Thailand has seen some of the worst flooding in South East Asia this week, with the number of deaths rising to 145 on Friday, according to a government spokesperson.

Over 100 of the fatalities are from the southern province of Songkhla, where flood waters have submerged homes and hotels, the government says.

The exceptionally rare cyclone has brought rains to Aceh, North Sumatra and West Sumatra.

A woman from the affected region in North Sumatra describes the shortages caused by the deadly weather at home.

Basic goods and food supplies like cooking oil and vegetables are hard to find in markets, and prices of what is available have become extremely high, says Yopi Aghaji, a resident of the Sihitang District on the west of Indonesia.

The price of a kilogram of chilli peppers, she says, has doubled from 100,000 rupiah (£4.53; $6).

Petrol is also in low supply.

"On Thursday night, many people queued until midnight [at gas stations] but many went home empty handed because the petrol had run out," she tells the BBC.

Blackouts are still happening sporadically and schools have been closed until the end of the week, she adds.

Sri Lanka is grappling with one of its worst weather-related disasters in recent years.

At least 56 people have been killed and many missing, after floods and landslides caused by heavy rain that hit the country this week.

Cyclone Ditwah brought more rains on Friday as it swept through the island nation.

Pictures coming from Indonesia show how its people are coping with some of the worst floods the region has seen in years.

Thousands of families have been forced to leave their homes in areas hit by the flooding.

The pictures also make clear the devastation and massive cleanup needed across the country.

Thailand, which is set to be the host of next month's South East Asian games, will move events for 11 sports to the capital Bangkok because of severe flooding in the south.

Among the affected sports are muay thai, judo, wrestling, and the qualification rounds for men's football - which were originally scheduled in the flood-ravaged Hat Yai and Mueang Songkhla districts, as well as in the Chonburi province.

The changes come less than two weeks before the games, which will run from 9 to 20 December.

These adjustments were made "to ensure safety for athletes, officials and spectators", the organisers said on Thursday.

During a parliamentary session this morning, Sri Lankan MP Ajith Perera raised concerns about an emergency situation reportedly involving a stranded bus.

"I have been getting multiple reports of a bus that has been stranded near the Kala Wewa [a major reservoir complex in central Sri Lanka] for one and a half hours," he said, urging the government to facilitate the approval of a helicopter to rescue the passengers.

In response, Minister of Justice Harshana Nanayakkara confirmed that the bus was stranded. He told lawmakers that police had instructed the bus to halt its journey because conditions were too dangerous to continue.

Armed forces had already been deployed, and a helicopter had been authorised for the rescue, he added.

“They will be rescued,” he said.

At least 80 people have been killed and dozens remain missing after severe flooding struck Indonesia this week.

Sri Lankan authorities mobilised the military on Friday to support relief and rescue operations, as the death toll from the heavy rains that battered the island nation this week rose to 56.

Helicopters, navy boats and armoured personnel carriers have been deployed to evacuate stranded villagers across the country.

In Aukana, Anuradhapura, a military helicopter conducted three operations this morning to rescue people stranded by the adverse weather and the overflow of the Kala Wewa, a major reservoir complex made up of two man-made lakes.

The helicopter successfully airlifted a man who had been sheltering atop a coconut tree since yesterday evening, and six individuals stranded on the Manampitiya Bridge, the Sri Lankan Air Force said.

The widespread flooding and landslides hitting Indonesia over the past few days have been triggered by Cyclone Senyar.

It is exceptionally rare for cyclones to happen in Indonesia, as they almost never form near the equator, says Erma Yulihastin, a researcher at the country's National Research and Innovation Agency’s Climate and Atmospheric Research Center (BRIN).

On 23 November, rainfall on Sumatra’s west coast reached 160 mm (6.2in) per day - then, on 24 November, rose to 226 mm per day. These numbers far exceed Indonesia’s average monthly rainfall of around 150 mm.

“If rainfall exceeds 100 mm in a day, it is already considered extreme - let alone reaching 200 mm,” says Erma.

In Central Tapanuli and Sibolga - two areas on North Sumatra’s west coast - rainfall over four days reached as high as 800 mm.

Parts of Thailand are also battling record floods, after 10 provinces were hit across the country's south over the past week.

A morgue receiving bodies of flood victims in southern Thailand has filled up, prompting authorities to bring in three refrigerated trucks, a hospital staffer told the AFP news agency.

"The morgue has exceeded its capacity, so we need more," said Charn, a morgue official at Songkhla Hospital who only gave his first name, after the death toll rose to 55.

Footage filmed by an AFP journalist showed white refrigerated lorries parked outside the hospital's main building.

Earlier this week the Thai city of Hat Yai, a business hub bordering Malaysia, recorded its heaviest rainfall on record - 335mm in a single day.

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has ordered another round of aid to be distributed to the country's three affected provinces of Aceh, North Sumatra and West Sumatra.

Heavy monsoon rains have caused rivers to burst their banks, triggering flash floods and landslides across the country's Sumatra island. Communication lines and power have been cut in some areas, making rescue efforts difficult.

"We sent around 150 tents, 64 inflatable boats, and most importantly communication devices, about 100 units to help restore communications," said Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya in a press statement released on Friday.

"What’s important is that all aid reaches the deepest and most detailed locations."

Sri Lanka is currently experiencing its worst weather related disaster in recent years, with at least 56 people killed and 21 missing after floods and landslides ripped through parts of the country.

Twenty-one people were killed in the central tea-growing district of Badulla when a landslide crashed onto their homes overnight, the Disaster Management Centre (DMC) said in a statement.

Videos uploaded to social media show houses being washed away as flood waters cascade through towns, while most train services have been cancelled across the country.

Sri Lanka is now bracing itself for more severe weather on Friday as Cyclone Ditwah moves along its eastern coast.

North Sumatra is among the worst-hit provinces in Indonesia, where at least 12 cities and districts have been battered by floods and landslides.

The provincial police say officials are working to expedite search efforts.

"The team is working day and night because the terrain is quite difficult at some points due to blocked road access," says Senior Commissioner Ferry Walintukan.

A resident in the neighbouring province of West Sumatra said the floods hit suddenly, rousing him in the middle of the night with a loud bang.

"I looked outside, there was water everywhere," the resident Meri Osman told BBC Indonesia.

Mr Osman then got his wife and children to climb onto a cupboard inside their home, but the water levels rose quickly and submerged the house.

"I was swept away by the current, but I held on to the clothesline," he said. That was how he eventually got rescued.

Severe flooding and landslides have killed at least 90 people in Indonesia this week as unusually intense monsoon rains slammed the island of Sumatra.

Dramatic footage shows the deluge bursting river banks, residents inching through chest-deep waters, and vehicles and homes almost entirely submerged in brown, flooded streets - with only parts of their roofs left visible.

Rescuers are racing to bring more people to safety, but power cuts and mudslides have hampered their search efforts.
