webfact Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Heavy rains predicted in many parts of country By The Nation FILE photo The Meteorological Department has warned people in many parts of the country to brace themselves for heavy rains from Friday to Monday. In its third warning of heavy rains issued at 5am on Friday, the department said the heavy rains would be unleashed by a moderate high-pressure area from China that has spread over upper Laos and Vietnam. At the same time, a monsoon trough lies across the lower north, the Upper Central, the East and the Lower Northeast, while a Southwest monsoon prevails over the Andaman Sea, the South and the Gulf. All the factors will contribute to more rain. The department said heavy rains will come with gusty winds and people in some areas should be prepared for possible flooding and mudslides.

BoganInParasite Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Lovely sunny day in Nan yesterday. This morning woke to light fog and then sunny. But now hot and really hoping one of the thunderstorms currently in the province finds its way to the city proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to WORRY........ This current un-elected government is trying to make the 'Thai Public' think that it is concerned for them...... Hopeing to get 'really-elected' soon........ What a laff this regime has become..... Truly it is a Police state now and just makes warnings like this to 'fool the public'......... LOL ......... Edited to add -- these warnings are a 'cover-up' for not spending money or concern for 'flood drainage projects' Edited September 7, 2018 by sawadeeken add a line 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzaa09 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Imagine that. Heavy rains in August/September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell17au Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 It is now 06:00 and as forecast with warnings by the weather bureau we have thunderstorms with very strong wind and extremely heavy rain that started at about 02:00 and it is still very heavy rain now which has caused our soi to flood for the first time ever here in Khon Kaen. Looking at the radar this front is traveling from the north east to the south west and it is a continual unbroken line from well into Laos down to about 100 kilometres south of Surin.
