nauseus Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Already downgraded to a weak tropical storm now - no longer a typhoon. It may track further south than this story suggests but it should be a tropical depression by then. Hope rain misses Korat area though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freigeist365 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Depressing forecast as there are a few more heavy storms on the way... In the past we always had a very dry and super hot high season following a soaking wet season. Hoped this season 20/21 would be more in balance, but it doesn't really look that way... It's either hot like in a pizza oven with the whole garden drying up and dying or everything is under water. ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see any of these other heavy storms you mention? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nauseus Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Still a weak TS now and still offshore Vietnam, tracking slowly WSW. Likely to track across southern Vietnam then Cambodia as a tropical depression with decreasing winds but area of rain filling out with rising central pressure.
