T_Dog Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Just checked the Wunderground weather forecast and see that they are predicting a high temperature tomorrow of 16 C and a 40% chance of rain. Can anyone post a weather map showing how this "westerly trough" is pulling cold air our way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_Dog Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 http://www.tmd.go.th/en/list_warning.php http://www.tmd.go.th/en/weather_map.php Thanks Dell.... That site wouldn't open for me earlier but no problems now. With the high pressure above the trough, I can see how the cold air is getting here. It still feels strange to have this cool weather a short month before Songkran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_Dog Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 I felt like I was living in the Pacific Northwest this morning. Kept trying to see through the scudding clouds to see if there was a skiff of snow on the mountain tops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunDave Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Does this kill off the 2011 smoke season now? Looking at the radar it's raining all over the north, and also in Myanmar and Laos. Not just sudden sharp showers as we might get at this time of the year, but steady, prolonged rain that gives everything a thorough soaking. Surely the pyromaniacs in the hills will be defeated by this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tywais Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Happy to have a new rain thread open. Please do not close it down. I thought this was a high/low temperature thread? Got in my car to go to work and the outdoor temperature monitor showed 18 degrees at 8:30 AM. Indeed weird weather for this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the temperatures that would kill the party. You need hot wet girls dancing in the street. Temperatures like this would see all of them shivering in a corner, and no amount of Sang Som could warm them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiangmaiexpat Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Very odd weather indeed for this season. The mercury dropped to 19 deg. C and it's raining for longer than 24 hours. Not that I am complaining. The 16th of March 2010, exactly one year ago, was one of the worst days of the last smoky season, if I remember correctly. With a little bit of luck, we will escape the smog this year with the soil soaked and dried vegetation becoming green again soon. Perhaps nature is teaching people how to go through March without burning things. Cheers, CMX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotlost Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Flew into CNX his morning from KL. 1700 kilometers of solid cloud cover. Raining as we touched downed and could just make out Doi Suthep.

A year ago the were 220.5 and 1444 respectably. www.pcd.go.th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
