BANGKOK (NNT) - Another period of cooler temperatures will greet upper Thailand as well as the Central Region and Bangkok this week, although people in the capital city will also experience an unwelcome increase of airborne particulate matter.

 

The Meteorological Department reported that temperatures in the Northern and Northeastern Regions will fall by 1-3 degrees Celsius on December 14th and 15th. On those same dates, the drop in mercury will be slightly less for the Central Region and the Eastern Region where temperatures will decrease by just 1-2 degrees.

 

Mountaintops in upper Thailand will likely record cold early morning temperatures of 7-15 degrees Celsius. The mercury dropped to 8 degrees this morning (13 Dec) on top of Doi Inthanon in Chiang Mai province. Tourists at the Kiw Mae Pan scenery viewpoint on the same mountain enjoyed an early morning temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a sea of fog but those who anticipated viewing the sunrise were let down because of poor visibility.

 

The Meteorological Department reported that a moderate accumulation of PM2.5 airborne dust and smoke haze prevailed over Thailand. Levels of PM2.5 in Bangkok were generally satisfactory this morning (13 Dec), and areas with unsatisfactory readings were mostly located along busy roads.

 

The Pollution Control Department earlier warned that Bangkok and its vicinity will likely experience heightened PM2.5 levels from December 15th to 18th. People in Greater Bangkok are therefore urged to limit the use of personal transportation, avoid open-air burning and take relevant health precautions.

Completely opposite to the forecast I get in Kalasin Province, where it's expected to rise.

Being a weather forecaster is the greatest job in the world (except for being a Thai policeman who gets paid whether he works or not), because if you get the forecast wrong people just expect it and you never get fired ????
