Thread: Scorching Heat and Storms Grip Thailand

It's cooled down to a balmy 35 degrees in Korat today, with the promise of 'storms coming'...

Apparently there was a light, ten minute shower yesterday.

I've just had the weekend in Pak Chong / Khao Yai where it was noticeably cooler and breezier, around 4 degrees cooler in fact. And we had huge downpours yesterday. I could have happily stayed down there.

Heavy rain this morning and been off and on all day since in Bang Na. A lot cooler today.

Same as yesterday here west of Udon Thani, though it was a little cooler early am, anticipated winds and storms noticeably absent!
Unusual for TMD to be so inaccurate

Strong winds and rain in Don Muang at about 2pm. Temperature has dropped from 36 to 30 with drizzling and a nice breeze.

It's still broiling here.

Lower AQI than London, though.

And they have TD hero Sadiq Khan on their side.

So Chitty will be watching closely.

Looked like a lovely Spring day watching the London marathon.

Well the rain came at last. We had a nice hour of relatively heavy rain. The first in a while. The farmers cheered

There sure is a lot of lightning hitting the ground south of CM.

Well hot diggidy.

Yee haa

You probably don't have a view from your village hovel, but normally it's high in the clouds - there's that too - but there are some spectacular strikes going on.

Poured down rain last night. Getting up to a cooler morning.

No noticeable change here, still a tad warm, looking at zoom earth we should get some rain this afternoon????

Yeah, lovely and cool this morning.

You were up with the birds, MissK.

You're lucky, we barely got drizzle that could almost be described as "high humidity" and now it's warming up again.

Bring me some of those thunderstorms please.

31 degree peak today
Lots of rain here overnight and more to come a fan free night and lower forecast soon into mid 20s amd lots of rain but back up again after this weekend.
Purely subjective but it has been hotter on averge this year than any of last 20 years here.

FFS.
It's the tropics.
A little seasonal excessive heat.


Pussies.

Well there's another firework display in the sky tonight, covering probably 100 degrees of the horizon to the south (again), with a burst every 1-2 seconds.

Spectacular to watch.

Dunno if it's moving though.

Exactly Jeff.

It's not as though these 40-100,000 forum post tossers get off the computer and go outside much anyway

^ Inside/outside... it's all the same when you ban aircon for the household.

Surely Temu must do solar rechargeable cooling camo shorts

Looks like Jeff is tucked up in the A/C then.
