The rain has come at last... coming down hard in Hang Dong

[Maejo Man]

Thunder and lightening and a howling wind over the Manor..........Not a drop in sight

[Tywais]

I live about half way to Hang Dong and it's coming down nicely now. Funny thing, the frogs in the fields behind me were making a ruckus for the last two nights and now they suddenly went quiet.

[adjan jb]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!

[dave2]

[Maejo Man]

[jackr]

Noticeably cooler over the next few days

[jackr]

A Pissy amount of rain, forecasted every year won't help you much, I'm afraid. No storms at all until after Songkran

The big boys know best

[PeaceBlondie]

Did not last long around San Kamphaeng, but it did rain and that should clear the air. Hardly seen the sun for days now.

[dave2]

....#uck....its all over ..... thunder and lightning for a bit ...... it #issed down .... and two hoursl later zilch / nothing / #uck all / BRING BACK THE RAIN ...... dave2

[Greenside]

Let's hope we see a serious improvement in the air tomorrow morning.

[eek]

Hoping same thing Greenside. Was quite a short sharp burst (thunder and lightning too, plus a few mini power cuts)here in town, but very refreshing. Fingers crossed for a brighter, bluer, and clearer morning.

[swain]

Coming down hard again in Hang Dong.... Love it!

Hmmm. I joined the two of you in your hopes, but at 6:50 in the morning, it seems to be neither brighter nor bluer nor clearer. I am left now with the hope that the air itself is much cleaner, and that the smog we had has been replaced by ordinary cloud cover. One fact I hold up in support of this hope is that I can see, through thin cover, the top of Doi Suthep, below which is a band of much thicker cover through which I can see nothing, with the boundary between thin and thick being fairly sharply defined, just as it is with . . . ordinary cloud cover! Well, I can cling to my little hope, at least until someone like Priceless comes along to dash it to the ground.

[Maccheroncini]

Finally YESSSSS

Actually, no. While it's still overcast and drizzling like this morning it's of course cooler, but as soon as that goes away the hot season kicks in. Also because the air is clearer (less or no smog) the sunshine will really heat up the place.

(Not complaining, just stating the way things are

!!!SONGKRAN WEATHER!!!

Ok, that's enough, it's getting boring now, bring on the dry season.

[StevieH]

i never thought i would be happy to see and feel rain again but scootering through the drizzle at 7 this morning was bloody bliss.

Yes Rasseru, seems we wont be having a bluer clearer sky for a while, but i am glad of the fresher air. Have the doors flung open to enjoy the air flow.

Really loved the crackle and bangs of the rainstorm last night. No blue sky yet, but very happy about the cleaner air.

[StevieH]

there was shedloads of lightning to the north of chiang mai last night. from about 9pm until 11pm or so, dam_n great sheets of it.

[jackr]

i never thought i would be happy to see and feel rain again but scootering through the drizzle at 7 this morning was bloody bliss.

Bugger Bugger Just got back from Bkk this morning, I missed RAIN Wonderfull Rain

Please Please come again Soon.

[Sparkles]

Slightest of sprinkles in Chang Kien. Hubby and I were out in the sala..."do you hear that? Is that raindrops? It IS raindrops!"...30 seconds later...done.

5 drops of rain last night in Hang Dong.Made the mistake of bringing a huge load of washing in and that put paid to that. Today, however, a unexplained large number of lizards ,big and small, scurrying around. Do they know something we dont ?

Wonderful nights rain in Hang Dong and the lizards were spot on. They obviously know more about CM weather than some people posting on this forum that were trying to convince everyone it would not rain before Songkran. Lizards 1 V Thai Visa participants 0

[Blinky Bill]

It's gonna get hotter before the real rain season starts. This is just a teaser.

Well bring it on!

Oh I forgot, I wont be here.

I am heading next week to the south of India, a much much cooler place than CM.
