webfact Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 PHOTO via iStock by Samantha Rose The weather forecast for Thailand over the next 24 hours shows that westerly winds will continue to dominate the northern region, leading to reduced rainfall. However, there will still be sporadic thundershowers in some areas. Meanwhile, northwesterly and southwesterly winds will prevail over the Andaman Sea, the southern region, and the Gulf of Thailand, resulting in increased intensity of thundershowers and heavy rain in some parts of the south. As a result, waves in the Andaman Sea are expected to reach heights of 1-2 metres, while areas affected by thundershowers can see wave heights exceeding 2 metres. Caution is advised for mariners in the Andaman Sea and areas prone to thundershowers. During this period, the accumulation of dust particles and smog remains minimal across Thailand due to ongoing rainfall in some areas and good air circulation. Weather forecast for Thailand from midnight today until midnight tomorrow: North: Generally hot weather with partly cloudy skies in the afternoon and isolated thundershowers in 10% of the area, mainly in Mae Hong Son, Chiang Mai, and Tak provinces. Minimum temperature 23-28 degrees Celsius, maximum 36-40°C. Westerly winds speed 10-20 kilometres per hour.

ikke1959 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Heavy rain after Songkran was predicted... In my country if the weather forecast is "here or there some rain" we always say "it always here"..... In Thailand it seems always there as in Phetchaburi almost no rain has fallen at my area..Other parts I don't know but "that is there" and I need it so much for the garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give a brown envelope to the responsible rain-goddess or I do a naked rain dance ???? I take it also on the day...what it costs me on solar I save on ACs in the company....We have a small room with a CNC which is strong+has an hydraulic pump...and there is a 5kW suction and the 5kW end in hot air. One of the two AC in the room does not work. One side of the wall the sun is direct shining. It was sauna climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 (edited) I do a test. Temperature forecasts for next few days from different sources. I saved them as screenshots and will check against reality. I am a strong believer in ECMWF Sorry to say but "Access" (Australia) is usually rubbish. GEM (Canada) similarly wrong. https://meteologix.com/th Edited May 19, 2023 by KhunBENQ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 It's somewhat entertaining to see the much bigger number of forecasts for Pattaya and how ridicolously they differ https://meteologix.com/th/forecast/1614295-pattaya/xltrend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortean1 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 A few miles south of Hua Hin in cactus country only a brief shower two weeks ago whereas Hua Hin had a strong rain. We are off to Maryland in the U.S. on June 1st to enjoy the cooler weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eloquent pilgrim Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 6 hours ago, KannikaP said: FORECASTED is a new word for me. Tricky one really; forecasted is the past tense or past participle of the verb forecast. So it would have been more grammatically correct to have said “Heavy rain and thunderstorms have been forecasted across parts of Thailand” .. thus putting forecast in the past tense. Would really have been better to simply say “Heavy rain and thunderstorms forecast across parts of Thailand” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
