mcgriffith Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 OK, Winnie- you proclaimed smoke season over, hot season on a few weeks ago. Could you please now proclaim hot season over, rainy season on so we can get over this stupid brain melting heat? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 hmm.. not sure if I want to make that call yet. At any day when there is no cloud cover (even if just in the morning and afternoon) it can still get incredibly hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgriffith Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Last 2 days at the Orchid pool...blistering heat, then sudden big drops, then total downpour/sheets of water in the mid or late afternoon. Refuge in the gazebo for the first time in ages. Sure feels like rainy season. Not that I'm complaining. Air is the cleanest in months, and can see the mountains around Mae Taeng from my apt.

CMX Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Sunday morning north of Superhighway (1001) well toward Maejo: Has rained steadily for hours this morning. Coolest morn in months. It's what we once called it "a farmer's rain" - steady and long. Air is a delight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Been raining steadily now in Hang dong since 7pm last evening. Reminders of last year really, just seems to have started later this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Dog Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Looks like it is just a low pressure system giving us the rain and not a seasonal change. Very steady up here in Mae Taeng after a wind storm last night. Frogs sure have gotten noisy here! http://www.tmd.go.th/en/warningwindow.php?wID=3028 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't miss the heat! But I have to admit that you're proclaiming on fairly small evidence of a seasonal pattern. Good thing that you're always right, usually, mostly, often.

eek Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Im loving the rain, but (yes, sorry, there is a but) i lament the extremes of these two seasons. If its hot is REALLY HOT, rarely a break, just blisteringly hot. and when it does come to the end of that heat wave it doesnt just rain, IT RAINS!! BUT, better than UK's all-seasons-in-one-day for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_Dog Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Rain keeps coming down and the electricity has been off in the Mae Taeng region for about 4 hours as well. Since it is too wet to venture out, the better half cooked some yummy spaghetti. Sure tasted good on a rainy day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Looks like it is just a low pressure system giving us the rain and not a seasonal change. I think that for significant rain to reach us, there needs to have been a seasonal change first (or at the same time I suppose). i.e. the winds shifting, with the South-Western monsoon moving in and determining the weather which usually brings reliable rain.) First week of May is a little early, but very welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have the same big guys you have. How they get into the house is beyond me! They get in through the tiniest opening. Turn all the lights off inside is the best way to keep them out.

wolf5370 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Pouring down at CMU for the last 10 minutes. Good they got the roof fixed where the tree fell through it in time. Lucky you, dry as a chip in Banwangtan, Hang Dong, nothing abnormal about that ,we live in hope. I'm just behind BWD in Hang Dong and its been raining all day - took the girls to their friend's house earlier (at 1pm) and had to drive because it was so hard (only a 5 minute walk) - and got a flat batter after I left the bloody lights on! Must be a large umbrella over BWD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf5370 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 And this is what the rain brought out tonight. Place was looked like Alfred Hitchcock's Birds (only slightly smaller scale wing-span wise) - swarms of the around the house and slipping in between the tiny gaps between the door and the frame (God knows how). Had my eldest daughter, 11, screaming and hiding in her room - until some got in -there too - now they are both alseep in my bed (as my room seems more sealed) and I'll kip in my office chair. At least the Jingjooks and ants will be happy tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
