It amazes me how it varies on such a small island. Here in Plai Laem we have been having rain on and off since the beginning of September. However, only one big storm - the rest are 'p ss holes in the snow' by comparison.

Today I was looking at big storms on Koh Phangnan and Maenam, but sunshine in Plai Laem.

Great 'ere innit?

Up at the Secret Waterfalls yesterday & the flow is back to being good, the small reservoir on the way up, is full to over flowing...

I am not sure how much of Maenam it feeds... but think water shortages should be over now! Me thinks it's going to be a wetter than last year's season!

I guess the new drainage system on the ring road with get a good test this year.... ?

Problem of course the grass, weeds & plants are growing like crazy!

I don't know what part of Doi Saket you live in gotlost but the part I live in it certainly hasn't come to an end. In fact the mrs just had to bring her washing in out of the rain.

Good old rainy season! Tried to close the bar at 2 AM last night but it was chucking it down so our customers didn't want to leave.... Finally closed at 6 AM when the rain stopped. Made a few bob last night!!!

I did not say it stoped. I just said its coming to an end. Someday.

Well, it's only the 11th October and I think that we have already had more rain than last year.

Are any of you guys in Chewang/Choengmon/wherever still on restricted water supplies?
