DrTuner Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Absolutely pouring in Koh Chang now. Never seen torrential rain start in under a second from no rain whatsoever. Fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I remember when I was in the service training for NBRC specialist, the air force metrology school was next door. They said that in the 70's forecasts were 75% accurate and you get 80% accuracy by saying that tomorrow is going to the same as today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet the gardener watering the garden has a better affect the you all doing a rain dance. Watered mine in Buriram on Friday morning. Come 5pm the roads were rivers.

BobbyL Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Definitely the driest rainy season in Bangkok I can remember for a while. Averaging maybe one or two showers a week, and the one a few days ago was like rain in England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so much evidence that a lot of expats spend their time sweating the small stuff and bickering that I can see the huge sign reading BORED OUT OF MY TREE... flying high. Best of both worlds for me I think. Have you read the thread called “what is your daily routine”? That should scare plenty of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive rain heading east over Yangon that should collect Chiang Mai after it passes. And if you look right this instant 18:30 all has vanished. This is the tropics.

chingmai331 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Is there some relationship between a high muslim demographic and rainfall? True, many muslims live in arid lands (Egypt, Arabia, Iran, etc), but Indonesia also has plenty of both rain and muslims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly sure of the date but it seems a muslim prince married a local in one of the 'far east' countries and Islam spread from that point.
