On October 6, 2026, a family in the Khu Yai Mi subdistrict of Sanam Chai Khet used a plastic basin to transport their feverish, autistic son through chest-high floodwaters to reach a medical appointment. Local officials intervened to assist the family, as the area has been inundated for 11 days due to water flowing from the Si Yat Reservoir.
