Seems I was lucky at PKK last night, despite the delays. I heard from the hotel owner this morning that the road going south was closed (Baan Saphan?). The whole central belt up to Kanch was horrible. If this is headed south stock up and stay in for the weekend- it was nasty. Dashcam vids from today too big to upload

Best weather site out there.

 Right now heavy rain in Samui for sure! 

Glad to hear that rain is falling in Hua Hin  as well, the local dams could use that water.

  Just hope that from January onward is a nice dry period.
