A powerful storm damaged windows at an apartment block in Thailand.

Dramatic footage captured by resident Thanawat Boonrod shows a glass panel nearly torn off from the opposite building in Bangkok on June 29.

The pane was seen swaying in the wind, barely hanging on.

Thanawat said heavy rain and strong winds struck the area when the incident occurred, which he believes caused the window to loosen.

He immediately contacted the condominium staff to report the situation.

The unit owner later removed the damaged window and used cloth as a temporary cover to prevent rain from entering the room.

Thailand and neighbouring countries in Southeast Asia are at the start of their annual monsoon rainy season, which sees soaring temperatures followed by powerful rainstorms. The rudimentary infrastructure often struggles with the deluge, leading to widespread flash floods.
