January 26, 201610 yr rained heavily early this morning but easing now, a nice relief for now, forecast is fine weather tomorrow so the snowman will melt soon
January 26, 201610 yr I have a house full of people escaping the snow in USA/Canada. They are all snuggled up in duvets at breakfast. No one is allowed to mention wood burner or central heating as I don't have one !
January 26, 201610 yr 11.5 degrees....all the fish in the aquarium died during the night except the small goldfish.
January 26, 201610 yr 11 degrees here in Nong Hoi. Every bit of computer equipment in my office turned on with the fans disabled to raise the temp to bearable levels or it's back to bed for the duration....
January 26, 201610 yr It was nice and toasty in the kitchen this morning -- courtesy of the toaster oven. Now I'm at my desk, in front of a window trying to do some work. Gads, the window isn't well-sealed. There's cold air blowing in and my fingers are stiff. No wonder the aircon bill is so high.
January 26, 201610 yr Pretty cold today in Chiang Mai; colder than parts of the UK. Need to get a better coat

No one is allowed to mention wood burner or central heating as I don't have one ! funny that, I'm currently driving a Yaris and its cranked up to 28c but all you get is cold air
February 24, 201610 yr As said above, huge wind gusts, dust devils and the feeling it might burst into thunderstorm in Hang Dong.. Signs coming down, things being blown over etc.. Seems to have backed off now and not a drop.
February 24, 201610 yr re TMD radar shows a storm south of Lamphun, with rain on the town. we could do with some rain to clear the smoke over doi suthep which is the worst weve had this year and it smelt awfull everywhere today pic taken .. 6 07 pm tonight dave2
February 24, 201610 yr Nothing on Omkoi radar. We live in hope and prayer ... Try the Phitsanulok radar
February 25, 201610 yr Bit of rain in the city last night, could count the drops. Recently have noted lovely red sunsets over Doi Suthep mostly due to various particles in the air, one of the few benefits of solid stuff in the air.
February 25, 201610 yr Massive cloudburst in Santitham last night complete with thunder and lightening
February 25, 201610 yr Heard a bit of distant thunder in MaeJo, during the night, followed later by a short but welcome heavy-shower, hope it clears the air a bit !
February 25, 201610 yr Popular Post re hope it clears the air a bit ! nahhh ... didnt work pic taken an hour ago ! dave2 ps the moon rising over the ping river / iron bridge last night looked good
February 25, 201610 yr Got a real soaking and wind last night here at The Pun Pun.... This morning water and wind blown debris all over the place.
February 26, 201610 yr Well we got a good splash around 630 this morning in Mae Rim. Very nice temp at about 20 and we can see the hills again.
February 26, 201610 yr Nasty.. http://www.chiangmaicitylife.com/news/last-nights-rain-may-have-polluted-ping-river/ I happened past the canal / klong thats NE of baan wang taan and it was a black, stinking, open sewer.. All kinds of canal side houses have been built along it and they would be unliveable for me. Totally rank.
February 26, 201610 yr Most all of the klongs are in a similar state to a greater or lesser degree, when the klong that runs through my garden runs dry I move the black water along with well water and pass the problem to my neighbor (who I adore and cherish above all other humans).
February 26, 201610 yr Yes that klong behind Gecko Garden isnt a pretty sight/site either. A lot of the klongs in town a rather rank... so glad Im not living near them, and they cant be good for anyones health. Hopefully more rain will wash all the filth away although some probably need a darn good dredging too.

February 26, 201610 yr Yes that klong behind Gecko Garden isnt a pretty sight/site either. A lot of the klongs in town a rather rank... so glad Im not living near them, and they cant be good for anyones health. That's the Mae Kha Canal that the story is about. It's exceptionally nasty, an open sewer basically, right through town. Solution: provide proper sewers to all the houses/communities alongside it. I seem to recall I pay tax money for such things.. but no, we get jet fighters and aircraft carriers that fall apart within months, not plumbing or quality education. /rant
