BANGKOK (NNT) - A weather advisory for October 14 and 15 has been issued for the Northeast, Eastern, and Central regions. An increase in rainfall is expected, with heavy rains occurring in some places.

 

An intense low-pressure area prevailing over the upper portion of the Philippines is moving into the mid part of the South China Sea. There is a possibility for the low-pressure area to develop into a storm that will then move toward the coast in central Vietnam today or tomorrow (14 October). The storm or low-pressure area is expected to then rapidly weaken due to a cold airmass moving into the region.

 

These phenomena are expected to have effects on Thailand’s weather on October 14 and 15. Rainfall will increase in the Northeastern, Eastern, and Central Regions including Bangkok and its vicinity. Heavy rains are expected in Chaiyaphum, Khon Kaen, Kalasin, Mukdahan, Maha Sarakham, Roi Et, Yasothon, Amnat Charoen, Buriram, Surin, Sisaket and Ubon Ratchathani.

 

Prime Minister Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha is urging people in these provinces to exercise caution against heavy rain and accumulated rainwater. The latter could trigger flash floods and forest runoffs. People are advised to follow announcements from the Meteorological Department. Information can be obtained from the weather bureau’s website at www.tmd.go.th or the 24-hour weather forecast hotline 1182.

Being a weather forecaster is the perfect job. If you're wrong no-one is surprised and it's considered normal so you don't get fired. It's a bit like being a policeman in Thailand. No-one expects you to perform your duty and if you don't you don't get fired.  

We are not exactly on the bright side now.

 

In northernmost Khon Kaen light rain right now.

Maybe no rain atm.  Have a look at this.  https://www.accuweather.com/en/th/national/satellite-enhanced

 

The intense storm currently over the northern Philippines is headed our way.

Rained on and off in Udon this afternoon, sometimes the concrete even  got wet. Less than a millimetre.
