Tropical Storm To Hit Thailand

Featured Replies

I wonder why it is called a weather "forecast" on the TMD website?

Could it be because they (like meteorological departments all around the world) are in the business of predicting future weather, based on current indicators?

Just another opportunity for the ignorant and uninformed to slag-off Thailand, with the usual lack of analysis or even thought. I can just imagine the howls on here if there was a destructive storm, for which the TMD decided not to issue a forecast, or the news networks decided not to report, based on the whinging feedback they might get from TV's finest.

Should the "predicted" storm duly occur, there will be a number of posters with a lot of egg on face.

Does anyone think they will revisit this thread, and recant their dismal musings? :) Not bl00dy likely.

Some of you really ought to be elsewhere. :D

I promise to come back and will apologize if there is a tropical storm on the dates implied ok?

However I doubt very much that there will be a need. Just do a little research on current and historical weather for this part of the world, then take a look at the synoptic charts available on TMD website. The chance of a 'Tropical Storm' hitting Thailand on the dates specified in the original report are less than zero. You can follow up as well with the NOAA websites as well as the JTWC sites.

Have a look at the weather sites I've mentioned.

Still think its ignorant and uninformed?

The links didn't work for me, but that is by the bye.

You are correct - I should have researched the difference between a tropical storm, and a thunderstorm.

:D
