webfact Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Bangkok rain. by Mitch Connor Rangsit University’s Climate Change and Disaster Centre expects two storms are set to hit Thailand next week, with potential impacts on Election Day, May 14. The centre’s director, Seri Suparatit, revealed in a Facebook post yesterday that two storms – one originating in the Indian Ocean and the other in the South China Sea – are moving towards Thailand. Cyclone Mocha is currently producing heavy rainfall in the Bay of Bengal, while another tropical depression is beginning in the South China Sea near the Philippines. Suparatit’s post indicated that the two storms would start affecting Thailand from May 9. Nonetheless, the heat and a low-pressure trough are expected to cause thunderstorms starting on May 8 in the central, eastern, northeastern, and northern regions.

Jai Dee Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 It's interesting to see the forecast storms approaching on Windy.com (Press the little red play button at the bottom left of the screen) The one originating in the Indian Ocean looks like it will hit Myanmar pretty hard... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to get some of that next week, could use some overcast skies & rain. Been brutal the past month. Edited May 6, 2023 by KhunLA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After weeks and weeks of high 30s it's all about to cool down to a chilly low 30s in my area of Kalasin Province. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AhFarangJa Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I seem to recall that last month they predicted heavy storms coming down from China with possible infrastructure damage and flooding. Guess what, absolutely nothing happened. The only storm here next week will be the rigged election results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
