Flooding in Sakhon Nakhon remains critical in Isaan Posted July 29, 2017 Time is now 2215 4 am we had a warning. Water rising and we might risk flooding 6 am the water came to our little house at ban non kho, sawang daen din. At first it did not look serious. But I learned another story. The level of the water became higher and higher - fast. We, my gf and I had to save a few things before we entered a big dining table, 10 am rescue people came. Nice, smiling young men. bringing a big boat. Sailed to a dry spot and waited for further transport to some friends. So far so good. Damages, yes. All technical equipment, 2 mc, atv under water. Furniture under water - Electricity was disconnected very early. Good idea remembering accidents with this power. Now residing in a hotel room. Much more rain is expected so it looks a little bad the next days. Nobody knows when the stormy weather is going to stop. Nobody here can remember the situation has been so bad ever the last 50 years. Hope 50 years or more will pass by before a similar situation occur again. I am a farang, not english so mistakes can happen.
