rooster59 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Summer storms warning in effect in 4 regions The Thai Meteorological Department on Friday (April 6) warned people in the North, Northeast, East and Central regions as well as Bangkok to brace for summer storms in the next 24 hours. It said that the four regions and Bangkok would experience thunderstorms with occasional gusty winds, lightning, hail storm and heavy rains in some areas. It advised people in the affected areas to stay away from exposing themselves in the open field, under big trees or billboards. The Weatherman also predicted the possibility of flash flood and suggested farmers to take steps to protect their crops from damages inflicted by hail storm or strong wind.

"..........exposing themselves in the open field, under big trees or billboards." No, you can expose yourself indoors quite safely, if you wish, just not out in the fields, under the big trees or hoardings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee4Life Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 A few rain showers off and on here at NongKhai, but mostly just wind. Sure feels nice compared to the heat and humidity normal to this time of year. Besides..I don't have to pick the mangos, they are coming down to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLW Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Surprisingly cold in Bangkok for April and upcoming Songkran. Usually it is sweltering hot around this time of the year. Does anyone have weather records for lowest temperatures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 We had our share late yesterday and early this morning. I haven't counted but we already had a couple of thundershowers this year. And it is so cold this morning, about 18 C, exceptional for April. And what do I see for next week? 40 C max 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeptic7 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Big T-storm in the wee hours this morning in BKK and some substantial rain. Light rain continued well into the daylight hours. Coolest April day in my memory AND BKK (probably many other areas) could set or tie records for the coolest April low temps ever! From what I've gathered, the coldest temp ever recorded in BKK in April is 22 C...approx 72 F. Forecasts vary, but it will be very close if forecasts are correct! A very rare and welcome respite from the heat and humidity...and before the summer steambath sets in for months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
