Got the sprinkler working overtime. Hope we get a few drops. Outside Ayutthaya is the same. Thank goodness the meter has been broken for the last 6 months; new meter will come sometime in the future, PS: Many thanks to NCC1701A and Laza45 for all the maps and info you provide. They're really appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manage water? that's the problem, there is none to manage. Guess they could ask the UK to help, where after a week with no rain they have hosepipe bans?

This kind of thin rain evaporates as fast as it hits the ground... As for the depression, we will get some of the tail end of it, but not a direct hit, which very rarely happens with depressions in the South China Sea (which despite its name belongs to the US, by the way...). And the Indian Ocean????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most conditions being the operative phrase I am not worried that she will get wet. Severe weather causes delays , cancellations and missed connecting flights, as I am in the US I have no way of knowing how severe this tropical storm is and was hoping to get some feedback.

Thanks anyway It's not severe. Not a typhoon category. Just a Tropical Low...or Depression. .. a bit windy and a bit rainy. The usual track from Taiwan to BKK is well south of the storm's track. They should get a good tailwind . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC1701A Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 this is warning graphic #2. Note that the projected path at the very end now has a slight southern turn. Monday could be very wet for Chiang Rai and vicinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 and Sattahip radar shows rain approaching Hua Hin. Typically rain approaching from the west rain dies out before reaching Hua Hin but this is different with the low pressure system. We shall see. http://weather.tmd.go.th/satLoop.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC1701A Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 as the rain travels east over the gulf from Hua Hin it should be raining in Pattaya in about one hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 We just had a minor squall hit us in Pattaya. Some strong wind gusts and now some light drizzle coming down. Hardly enough to call it a proper "rain" and the winds have died down already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About two hours ago, had a big wind gust in Pattaya, it was so strong it knocked something off, heard a big boom explosion sound and then the power went off in our building, no electricity for the past 2 hours, none of our neighbors seem to care, the landlord even shouted at us in Thai “pai non”, which is like “go to sleep!”, nobody’s triggered besides me.
