Here in Ayutthaya it clouded over, wind built up, thunder in the distance and then ...........................zip !!

Style over substance?  Yep, a Thai rain storm.

I was up in Pak Chong for a housewarming (Tam Boon Bahn) today and we had a torrential downpour for nearly two hours; strong winds, thunder, lightning - the lot.

What site is that off Donim?

From the Thai Meteo Department.

For around me I use the Nong Chok radar.

On the top there is a dropdown box with choices for other radars in Thailand.

It looked promising here in Northern BKK a couple of hours ago, it's all disipated now. Still cloudy so maybe something will fire up later, garden needs water and the river is too low to pump ????

Winds are picking up in the Don Mueang area of Northern Bangkok. The radar shows rain coming so.... Maybe a thunderstorm soon.

 

And it was, sat in the taxi 3 hours ago. Just pass wat laksi the sky was dark, flashing, and rain pouring so hard some of the cars on the highway decide to stop on the shoulder.

 

 

 

From the taxi to my doorstep, 3 meters. I was soaked.

Naff all here on the Darkside of sin city, during the day we had several cloud formations around us (according to satellite data) but it came to sweet fanny adams, it is cooler now, 23.45 hrs, but the air con is on in the bedroom so I'm off for a bit of belly boxing with the Mrs ????

Not a rain drop in Bangkok and Chonburi for almost 1 month, but I suspect something might happen during the night.

Distant lightening last night, but nothing at all here in Khon Kaen! Hasn't rained for yonks. Could do with some please, if anyone has some to spare :-)

We got some thunder last night around 2130 but no rain.  Today the Sun is back out beating everything that grows and walks.  They are calling for rain but it never seems to make it over to us.  I don't know what folks without wells are going to do no way rice goes in while this is going on.  I don't plant rice there is no money in small rice production.  Our Turmeric is doing well due to the extensive irrigation and well system i have in place. 

 

I don't know what I will plant next, all depends on what mother nature throws at us.

Another one hahaha? So where are these thunderstorms they keep predicting?

 

Michael Fish has nothing on Thai weathermen.

Not a cloud to see here in Bangkok , clear blue sky and very, very hot. 

[CGW]

40c & clear blue skies here outside Udon, not a sign of rain ???? Been so long since last saw any rain, not sure would recognise anyway......................

Maybe the swimming pool will boil today? ????

I can see them and hear them all around but so far it seems The Dome is keeping them away from our part of the east coast.
