Thailand officially entered its hot season on Wednesday. It will last through to the middle of May with average daytime temperatures expected to be up to 2oC higher than last year, the Meteorological Department announced today.

 

Average maximum temperatures across the country are forecast to top 35°C but, in the north and northeast, they could reach as high 44. 5°C, it said.

 

These two regions will, however, continue to experience cool weather during the early morning hours, until middle of March, after which it will get markedly warmer.

I have never heard that and have lived here 27 years. I guess it depends on where you live, but there's always been a 'cool' season in the descriptions that I've been given.

Hmmmm.....

Imagine that.

Happens every year.

Whether it's blessed and sanctioned officially or not. 

 

Nature isn't political that we know of.
