webfact Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Scorching temperatures, thunder and HAIL to hit Thailand this week File photo Thailand’s Meteorological Department has forecast a sharp rise in temperatures nationwide over the next couple of days. Weather forecasters say temperatures will climb to 41C for large parts of the country on Tuesday and Wednesday. The scorching conditions could then spark thunderstorms, isolated showers and even hail by the end of the week. People have been warned to secure property while farmers have been warned of possible damage to crops, as well as increased risk of lightning strikes. On Tuesday and Wednesday (10 and 11 March), people in the North, Northeast and Central regions have been told to brace themselves for “hot and very hot” weather, with temperatures to reach between 37-41C. Elsewhere, including Bangkok, temperatures are set to hit between 34-38C. From Wednesday and over the weekend, isolated thunderstorms are forecast nationwide. While Thailand officially entered its summer or ‘hot’ season on 29 February, the increased temperatures expected this week are not normally forecast for another month or so, which is the peak of the summer season. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2020-03-10 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardColeman Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Maybe 5mm of rain in Pattaya in 6 months - and that all evaporated. I guess the prayer meeting at the lake was a false hope, or not praying hard enough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy John Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Morning temp is in the low 20's were I am. Took the dogs for a walk about 6:15 am and it was a bit chilly with the smoke ladden air blowing over my uncovered shoulders & arms. Now laying on the banana lounge under the house Mid Arvo the fan is blowing hot air...but now less smokey.

Bangkok Barry Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Although places in the Middle East hit the mid-to-high 40s for a short time I've read that, on a year-round basis, Bangkok is the hottest city in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am showing my age, back when I was young the yanks were hopeless about the world geography. Even the average tourist now knows there is a world outside of USA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
