Popular Post NormanW Posted April 7, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2018 Not that I'm complaining however, I've never known it being this cool in April. Have you? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaoboi Bebobp Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) Nope. It's very strange. However, it was a delightful evening sitting on a patio on Arunothai and Soi Yume. Back home off Yume, it's warmer in my room (28C) than outside (26C). Thanks to my fancy outdoor/indoor electronic temp setup.

tropo Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) I don't think it is a record breaker, but it's wonderful. The thermometer is showing 24.8C at 62% humidity as I'm typing this. Don't worry though - temperatures will be back to normal by Tuesday. Edit: I see 24C was the record low for this day in 2009. The forecast shows 23C as the low tonight. The average low is 26C.

tropo Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 I found this: http://www.myweather2.com/City-Town/Thailand/Pattaya/climate-profile.aspx So if it drops one more degree, it will equal the coldest April temperature for 2 decades. HISTORICAL MONTHLY AVERAGES FOR APRIL The information presented below gives detailed historical monthly average weather conditions along with exceptional weather occurrences.

I did notice that April has the highest average minimums of the year in Pattaya and highest average maximums, so this is the hottest month of the year beating out May by a slim margin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Where were you? I had a wonderful cool season this past December/January. There was even a thread complaining about the cold temperatures. One night it dropped to 18C. I was here. We did have a few cool days but I found the cool season this year to be much shorter and much warmer (on average) than in many previous years. Something to do with el Nino and/or la Nina. It was forecast months ago that this last winter would not be cool, and they were right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know memories of this fades quickly in the heat so I went to the historical data. The average low for January 2018 was the lowest of the previous 3 years and the average low for December 2017 was the lowest for 4 years. http://www.pattayaweather.net/Historical-Weather-Statistics.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has actually heated up a degree in my room over the last couple of hours (now 25.4C) as the wind has died down, so you could be lucky to have a stinking hot day again tomorrow.

That makes it a 2-decade low-temperature record for April. It was a very pleasant and unexpected reprieve from the normally oppressive April heat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
