Hi. Any idea when the rainy season ends in Pattaya and when the cool season starts? When is the worst of the rainy season over?

Thanks in advance.

End of October, pretty much the same as here in Isaan

This year, the Raining Season has been CANCELLED, due to the Super-Dooper El Nino we are all experiencing this year.

This season will be drier in SE Asia, and probably in India, as well.

Then, as the warm water begins travelling back where it should be, next year, we should expect record high surface temperatures in 2027.

This is the condensed version of Hansen's article.

Or, go here for the original version of the article, at his site at Columbia University: https://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/2026/The.Bigger.Problem.2026.08.21.pdf

Nice article.

Enjoy!

Table shows it nicely

Just had a 4 day break in Koh Chang. Was expecting bad weather but had no rain and sun on most days.

Bureau predicts rain thunder storm next Thursday 4/5pm...thats it☔😛!

I reckon you'd be a Pom, most of the Poms I've met, always complaining about the rain.

Thailand and its rainy season is the best, washing everything down, etc. The downpour only lasts a short while.

No indication of this year but in past from last week in October to first two weeks of November.

I'd say the cool starts more December, January.

Cool season has started in Mukdahan for the last few weeks, cooler and rain.

Hopefully a bumper year for the 20 ry of rice.

Have to start to get the log gas fire dusted off. :)

Usually about mid-November, but the El-Nino might keep temperatures high this "cool" season.

Nov 7, about 1:30pm

I love rain Good drinking weather.

Better by the log fire...not far to fall.

You need to thank your lucky stars you're in rainy Pattaya instead of America where people are driving like 20 minutes to get a HUGE slice of cake that's now 20% smaller and $3 more.

Your problems are small compared to this 😁

Forgetting about the problems rain every day causes, along with the traffic and road insanity here. I feel safer on a motorcycle in the US than in a tank here, and the Cheesecake in the US is superlative.

Should be happy for rain in the modern Sodom & G

Yes, we used to have standards and deport people who didn't - hence 'Strayliens'

The rainy season hasn't started in Pattaya from my observations

in any case there are only 3 seasons in Thailand

Hot season

Bloody hotter season

and Hot but wet and humid-er season

sometimes at the end of the year temperatures an get down to a bone chilling 25 degrees centigrade for a couple of days 😋

And of course those living 'up north' (the slow way) in the mountains will have lower lower temperatures on occasion

top of Doi Inthanon @ 2,565 meters sometimes gets down to 0 !!
