Last night we watched fingers of lightning in clear sky for an hour with occasional bolts to ground a long distance south of us. Occasional thunder but almost continuous high altitude lightning. To

Once you've been here a long time, it's hard enough trying to remember what you did last week, let alone something like several years ago

If AppleMac comes thru with the rain I'll throw my PC/Androids in the khlong.

it didn't last long in south central Chiang Mai. It was relatively light and only lasted about half an hour at most. It might have settled the smog though. The wind and lighting was the first indication it was coming. Fortunately, I got home just before it arrived. And, it had stopped when I went out an hour later.

It rained for about half an hour at around 8.30 near Ton Pao. It wasn't heavy and no thunder or lightning. I guess I wasted the water on the lawn this afternoon.

I took a bicycle ride at around 9.30 inside the moobaan and then parked my bicycle at the guard's house and bought myself 6 bottles of Singha at 7-11 across the street. The ride was refreshing - the air was good though there was this smell of fire being just put out! My sixth bottle is only half-full now.

6 large? That's VERY impressive!

LOL. Actually Accuweather was right on the money about 3 weeks ago when there was not a single cloud in the sky. It rained 3 or 4 days each day.

I have just watered the garden and will wash the car first thing in the morning if that may be beneficial!

Accuweather is saying some thunderstorms from now until Wednesday. Some rain around which should help clear the air a little.

Four days of rain in one day? Maybe they should stop dancing, that's too much!

Ahh but Dave, just like titles such as the "Palace Hotel" and "Paradise Guesthouse" you cannot always trust what is advertised in Thailand.

Chances are not that you get the girl in the advertised poster..but rather something more along the lines of ...

I know exactly what you're talking about, having lived there for years. ALL the mountains around Pai, without exception, burn. Every year. Drive around in April and you won't find a single patch of forest that has not been burned.

I suspect that it's the same all the way to Mae Hong Son, and other places.... that's how we get the haze...
