Some good rain, just relenting a little as I post. nice breeze. Couldn't see the mountain much this morning, was hoping this might be on the way.

About 10 PM It rained hard for about an hour just south of town near the airport area. Now dry again with a few open patches in the sky with the odd star out.

First pitter patters hit the tent about an hour ago and now it is a steady rain here in Mae Taeng. Roughing it with the laptop in the tent. Sure has been a fast season change. Two nights ago it was very cold sleeping but very warm last night.

Very true. Last night it was so warm my girl friend had to take off ALL her clothes and sleep naked, like me.

Unfortunately, that doesn't make for a restful night.

This afternoon it's started showering again and it could go on all day. It's not so good for my friends who run a laundry business.

A few days ago, maybe a week, someone posted some excellent graphs showing how the rainfall for Chiang Mai and other places was dramatically different from the average during 2011.

Have looked in what I thought were the likeliest places to find these graphs, but no joy. Can anyone with a memory less befuddled by old-timers syndrome point me to the right link.

Thanks in advance.

I think it WILL be raining soon as I feel the humid today anyone think so?

I can actually see clouds in the sky to the SW, the ones made up of water moisture not smoke.

OMG this could mean a change in the weather- I hope!

I hope you get some of the same very soon it looks hellish up there.

the outstanding film Rain, with Joan Crawford and Walter Huston (later to win an Academy award for his role as the old miner Howard in Treasure of the Sierra Madre) from a story by W. Somerset Maugham...

have a look this afternoon but please don't let the viewing of the film 'rain' on a daily debauched, alcoholic and womanizing parade...

(now, there's a 50ish woman down the market with beautiful long hair who stretches languorously to show off her considerable stuff when I approach...especially when it's raining...me, with a leer: 'how's the fresh tofu today, sweetheart?'...)

Saw some water on the ground. But there was a guy with a hose too, so the source at this time remains uncertain. More later.

Sure it was water?

BTW, I left some large bed sheets out to dry outside. If it rains, with all the dust in the air, they'll get ruined tonight. Usually drying stuff out there brings on rain. And if that doesn't work then I'll go wash the car tomorrow.

All good rain spotting guys. Keep it all coming in.

I'm returning to Chang Mai tomorrow having experienced rain and a blowing wind. I'll be sure to play Crowded House - always take the weather with you - all the way up the 106. If that doesn't work, I won't know what to do.

What to do?

"Play it again Sam". Just to keep the movie theme going.

Back in Chiang Mai and I can smell rain. It's somewhere nearby. 16:15pm makes it 15 minutes late already, but TIT.

I'm off out on my motorbike. Will expect to be returning having purchased my rain mac for this year.
