HANOI, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Tropical storm Noul forecast to hit Vietnam's central coast late on Monday will cross Lam Dong, the country's second-largest coffee-growing province, state-run Vietnam Television said.

The storm, now less than 100 km (62 miles) east of Vietnam's central coast, would make landfall on Monday evening and move further west, affecting the southern part of the Central Highlands coffee belt, the television station said. (Reporting by Ho Binh Minh; Editing by Alan Raybould)
