Freezing here in Buriram. Pattaya last week was ok but jeans at night.

In Korat it's been in the low 60's, or for you europeans 18c

Nice !!!

Hey, if yo don't like it here, go back and freeze where you come from!

During 'cool' season it's too cool,

during 'wet' season it's too wet,

during 'hot' season it's too hot,

but during Songkran, the same complainers are the first to throw too cold and too much water into the overheated crowd.

Being from New England and the constantly changing weather I like this post. New Englander's bitch about the cold winter, the hot and humid summer, etc.!

My only complaint about Thailand weather is that during Songkran in Pattaya it lasts too long. It is just too inconvenient if one wants to walk to the mall, go shopping etc. Getting doused is a turn off after a week. But, unlike the weather, the songkran time schedule is pretty well known, and can be avoided.

Love the cool season in Pattaya. Warm enough in the daytime, excellent sleeping weather. Only drawback for me is when driving motorbike in late evening and rather cool driving 60 kmp; can't wear shorts, need light jacket.

Other than that, wish the refreshing cool season lasted all year long.

Better I bring my long underwear with when I go to Pattaya in January then.

No, but often wear shorts. Could not really last week.

what are you, 10?

could never understand grown men walking around in public in shorts

didn't their mothers teach them how to dress properly?

I think I have two pair of shorts, but I wear those only at home.

I do not care about people wearing shorts as long as they not come with socks and sandals

[fritte]

Only an idiot wears long trousers in the boiling hot sun.

I agree with that.

I dont know why some people believe wearing shorts is disrespectful if visiting places of respect then dress accordingly.

I dont expect to wear trousers during day light when walking around Samui, Chiang Mai or Bangkok. Evenings then I would probably wear suitable clothing for the occasion i.e. a nice restaurant.

Strange that some people have an aversion to shorts, a bit like they have an aversion to the 21st century and probably wish for the 1900's again. Probably dress up for dinner as well, stiff collars etc. in 100 degree heat !

Spoke to someone in Mukdahan the other day and he said they had snow and ice !!!
