webfact Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Picture: Thai Rath Thai Rath reported severe damage to property and power lines after a powerful storm accompanied by hail stones hit large swathes of north eastern Thailand at the weekend. Top billing on a YouTube posted video was staff and customers at a gas station in Mukhdahan running from the storm. It damaged the roof and cars. Dozens of other homes were hit all across Isaan with Roi-Et and Chaiyaphum featured in the video. Some resembled pictures of people hit by hurricanes. Later workers were busy cutting down trees that had fallen on power lines causing powercuts in much of the region.

Thailand Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Looks nasty, hopefully no major injuries. Nothing here in Chiang Mai just smog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunPer Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Sadly incidents like this always hit hardest on those that can't afford it, as they for example already hardly can afford proper roofs, nor accident insurance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwill Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I'm sure it had nothing to do with the construction quality on those buildings shown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A number of years ago I was visiting my ill gardener who lived a few hundred meters from our home. While there, the sky darkened, the wind started to howl, hail fell, and all the women in the area came out of their homes banging empty pots with large spoons. Not to scare the storm away..........just to scare off the bad ghosts associated with the storm. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
