Winter is coming to Pattaya!

This is the official weather forecast of the Thai government for Chonburi. I have been here very long but never saw such deep temperatures. Hard to believe. All open air bars will be without entertainers I guess ????☃️❄️.

21/14!

Hmm. Strange.

The tmd website is a bit more optimistic.

European weather computers even more optimistic.

I experienced 18 C in Pattaya long ago.

No fun scooter riding in a thin shirt.

How cold does it need to get before they issue a "Bar Girl hard nipple" alert?

Padded jackets with fur trimmed hoods out!

I have a sleeveless sweater in my wardrobe; I have worn it once for a couple of hours in the condo about 3 years ago.

Wow. Here the quality of the weather report of the Thai government - Chonburi for the next 7 days. The first picture is from yesterday. We get a winter ????????????. The next picture is from today. Obviously instead of a winter we get now a heatwave ????????????. Perhaps tomorrow we get a rainy season...????️⛈️????️ I have never seen anything like this... ????????????

Again the website is very different but also raised temperature forecasts.

Looks like this app is cr.p.

European forecast centers also show much less dramatic numbers.

Now I am even more confused. Mine is from www.tmd.go.th and yours from www4.tmd.go.th. So why the 4? Google says it is just a different server. So depending on the server you get different weather reports for the same location. Well done www.tmd.go.th ???????????? Will have to try www1, www2, www3... Perhaps I will calculate the average temperature values then to get a weather forecast ????????⛈️

Good point!

Somehow I managed to open the "old" site (as it has been for all the years).

The site has been redesigned and the new site shows the same nonsense as the app.

(those temperatures are very implausible)

What a mess!
