Hopefully it heads your way looks like its blowing west to east. I have had my sliders opened in all rooms and the breeze is blowing through the condo now, and keeping it at 29.5 C, with a PM 2.5 of 3. So all is good other than being just heavy sprinkles and not the usual downpour. It is very welcomed. Glad I ran this morning at 5 am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guderian Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 In Pattaya all we've had is the sort of spitty rain that you can sit outside in and not get wet. The reservoirs are still almost empty, we really need some serious rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
