This morning we had a soft rain again for about half an hour.

I remember 2 years ago, rain everywhere but not over here.

This time we have more luck and it's very nice weather today!

Well our dry spell is over. Huge down burst with tons of water for an hour. Two lightning strikes within a hundred meters of the house. Those sure got my attention as the sheer amount of noise was deafening.

It pleut in Mae-Jo at least chats et chiens !

Be careful out there!

It certainly raining next to Iron Bridge Rimping Supermarket

Over near wat jed yot off the superhighway, still raining quite hard but the power has been off/on about 6 or 7 times in the last 40 minutes..luckily, I recently purchased a UPS.

Very much rain here in Saraphi now, the power is still on, oh wonder!

Just easing near Jed Yod, and power back on after a short outage

Rain and strong wind in Nimman knocked out my Internet connection as well

It might rain soon.

It might rain soon.

If you meant tonight, its looking a bad prediction. Clear skies!

Are you his neighbor?

Are you his neighbor?

I very much doubt it.

If it's about rain, then surely we have to keep gotlost's thread going?

I fully agree.... somewhat like a cult tradition....and some of the downpour is deserving of that thread

Much like the free water or not thread covering several years..

River is steadily rising here in Padaed - hows things along your way Gonzo?

River is on the rise, but no need to gather the animals just yet.....[just the fish]

The govt has been digging and dredging here by The Pun Pun and the river to the south of us is now much lower. To the north of us and the hole just dug the river is much higher, maybe 30 to 40 feet. It has created a beautiful waterfall. But now the whole is filling up and the river looks like it will be pretty level again but a few feet higher...... but not to worry, not near clearing the eastern bank yet.....

Thought for the day : Remember fish are your friends too.

After the rain last night, I have my eye on the river..... so far, so good,

I will look out for it as it passes my way.

Started to rain about one houre ago here between Hang Dong and Saraphi.

Clouds are coming more from the north today, yesterdays rain came from the south.

The river height as at 08.00 hrs today at Narawat Bridge

Drizzle confirmed in the Muang.

An hour of hard rain this morning up here in Pai; now appears to be brightening up.

Maybe they went to Mae Sai for a visa run

Well the rain might have eased today in the city, but there is still a load of water coming down the river from the north. Risen to over 2 meters at Narawat bridge. How's it down there Gonzo?

That's the best place, for one's liquid assets, I believe !

Still bucketing down in Padaed.....be interesting to see the river in the morning.

Notice quite a few people with already prepared sandbags.

Very much rain and strong wind in short time yesterday evening. Power went off for a while. Now there is a steady rain. The river is preparing a, real flood test for Bangkok.

But but ...

... they cancelled the 2nd round of 'flood testing' as many parts of Bangkok are already flooded! I hope the hydraulic Engineers know more about what they're doing than the Reporters know about journalism.
