barryofthailand Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Yup.... winter is here!Strange 25 degrees and we call it cold? We are going to the UK for xmas and new year...and its 8 degrees warm and 5 degrees at the cold end. NOW that's COOOOOOOOOLD. Need to dig out the thermals This year is predicted to be the coldest winter for thailand in ten years. All the northern provinces and two northeastern provinces will have record lows of 5 degrees celcious. Pattaya will probably get down to around 12-15 celcious which is 49-55F. Yes because of the big temp swing everyone is getting colds. The humidity has also gone down to a reasonable level. Wear a jacket or long sleeve shirt on the motorbike in the morning and evenings.

tropo Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It is too cold sitting on the balcony. I'm freezing my butt off. My bedroom dropped to 27 °C without aircon! I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimmer Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I sit in the shade of a wall in the evening away from the sun which is very hot up to about 5pm. But as soon as the sun drops below the horizon it is like someone switches of the heater and I have to go inside or suffer hypothermia and exposure. After eight o'clock inside the house it get steadily colder and I have to close the windows and put on a T shirt and socks, Brrrrrrrrr.

The joys of living out of town Same here in rural Pong Was sitting at the outside poolbar last evening with Mobi, contemplating whether to stay outside shivering, or move inside into the comfy warmth of the aircon pub Mobi drove in from Pattaya (or was it Jomtien) and noticed the temperature difference was quite big, possibly in the 5°C region!

Ungabunga Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Found myself wearing an old wooly cardigan that I usually keep for my trips to the UK last night and with any luck, I should get scarf & gloves for Xmas! On a 'warmer' note, it's definately good for the electricity bill, makes a big difference in just being able to run a fan instead of a/c, or nothing at all as of late.

NanLaew Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Global warming? Global whingeing more like! A 5 degree drop in temperatures and all the Brits start to stick out like dogs <deleted>. I guess we can look forward to the the 'How hot can it get?' threads come April. BTW, it was a bit 'nippy round the gorbals' up in Udon the past couple of nights but I had my woolly hat and parka so blended in (I would like to think).

Lite Beer Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Bloody freezing up here in Khon Kaen. That will teach me to move north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerryd Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Here in Pattaya Tai, everything is sabaii sabaii ! Nice breeze to make the air (seem) clean. Humidity almost gone. Very pleasant. My (Thai) neighbours mentioned it was cold, as they zipped up their jackets. I explained that back in (some parts of) Canada, it was well below the freezing mark and if they left a bucket of water outside over night, it would be frozen solid by morning, not to mention the snow everywhere ! When people I work with (in Afghanistan) ask me why I like to live in Thailand, I just have to point to the differences in temperatures (between Canada and Thailand) and that pretty much says it all. Bring on the 20 degree temperatures !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuban Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It is 10.5 degrees C here in Pai, who needs aircon?? We were in Pai last Christmas, OH was shocked at seeing her breath, but last night said she wanted the A/C on because it was too hot - we are just outside Pattaya. (cool 26-7 today.)

Humphrey Bear Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 If I remember correctly, two or three years ago a backpacker froze to death near Chiang Mai - went up into the hills to camp, didn't comme down again.

begsaresponse Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Last night just after midnight it was 20 or 21 degrees in our living room ...no aircon no fan! Bedroom just as cold with no fan no aircon. Just think the electricity bill will be down quite a bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardog Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Enjoy the cool while you can, Live in Bang Sare & do not need air at all.we have been using a blanket no fan. The shower room temp is a little cool if you shower at night. Pretty soon its back to hot again. It does seem cooler this year. Soon we will all be thinking how nice it was....Maybe not upcountry-It really gets cool-cold there!! Beardog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrestler7902002 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Here in Pattaya, not that cold....yet. Down to about 25 celcius at night. But a delightful change, for sure. Will keep electricity costs down since there is no need for air-con use. Those living up north and northeast, send the cold down our way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiromj Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I don't know if this week is different but when I was there last week, the weather was perfect. Not too hot, not too cold, nice breeze, and low humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
