WindGuru is predicting 77mm of rain, 9 ft waves and 27 Knot winds next Tuesday. If they keep this prediction going, things should get very interesting.

You know, you have to take these predictions with a grain of salt. Last week they were wrong.This week so far spot on.

We shall see! Just a "heads up" and a chance for WindGuru to redeem itself as far as accuracy goes. Most of its forecasts have been a crock, of late. Although in this case I would prefer them to be wrong!

It is November and to be expected but I don't want to take the boat out of the water unless I really have to.

Surat Thani residents have been warned of possible flash floods and landslides in 149 high-risk areas, including national parks and tourist attractions. Provincial governor Pracha Terat said the warning was issued in tourist destinations such as Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao and Khao Sok national park.

Krabi is on the other side of Thailand from Samui and as such, can have different weather. However, if there is a big storm, it will cover the entire southern Peninsula. So, only advice I can give you is to keep an eye on the weather maps. But, its not so bad, its not a cold rain

Uhm....accuweather.com on Samui is green (rain) for the next 15 days....

The first half of december is very good on the island because there are no turists but if it rains...

It's changed though, when I posted the link they were predicting about a 54mm of rain in 3 hrs, plus another 50mm in the three hours before and after. Now that is a lot of rain...

Until a few weeks ago I had great faith in the Wind Guru forecasts. However over the last couple of weeks they have been consistently inaccurate.

Still, I think that they may have a chance of getting it right this time as the info correlates with the Met Dept and Buoyweather info.

November, the month with the strongest rainfalls per year, is almost over. And this year, it was harmless.

Streets were flooded, but with pumps at the major problematic streets the Thessaban did a real good job, combared to the years before.

Agreed. Surprisingly good job. The maenam flood where bigger than previous years but it didnt take the more than a few days to get the big pump there and fix it. Same in bophut crossing. Samui seem to hve a community that works better than ever.

Just waiting for the rain to stop.
