alantheembalmer Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Does anyone know what the record low is in Bangkok for March? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 This morning I had a really cold shower...and I didn't even need one!!! Those electric shower heaters just don't cut the mustard compared to a gas water heater...when the weather turns cold. Still, compared to the regular routine of sweating, I'd take this alternative any day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchfarangjomtien Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Can anybody explain why it's so cold ? China and Russia now not only sending their tourist but also their cold weather ? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richb2004v2 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 This morning I had a really cold shower...and I didn't even need one!!! Those electric shower heaters just don't cut the mustard compared to a gas water heater...when the weather turns cold. Still, compared to the regular routine of sweating, I'd take this alternative any day... My electric shower has always worked well, in a Thai fashion. It's automatic. When it's hot out I get hot water and on the rare occasion it's cold I get cold water. What more could I ask for a shower in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont care much , been jogging today , it feels just like a wet summerday in Norway . Hope it will stay like this for a few days. And the air feels so.....clean.

BuckarooBanzai Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I have been praying for this weather for years in Surin. March is usually the hot month - but global warming has apparently cooled my tool life style! Let's hope it doesn't get out of hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I went outside about 9 pm in BKK tonight...and it felt just like San Francisco... Loving it... I can't remember the last time I didn't need to turn on either a fan and/or Air Con in the house... A rare, but much enjoyed pleasure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richb2004v2 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 If only it were like this all the time. Well, maybe a little warmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanForbes Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 My friend has a laundry business in Chiang Mai. She normally has stacks of big comforters that people leave in the hot season rather than bringing them home to store. After 2 days of this cold weather almost all the comforters are back home keeping people warm. Kind of funny really. When the weather turns hot again, Nong wil be washing and storing them again until next cold season... That is if the warm season ever returns. Maybe this is the start of the ice age.

PattayaParent Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I had to close the bedroom balcony doors last night and put a blanket on the bed. This cold weather is the reason I left England 30 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim's_a_Thai_Fox Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 13.9 deg here in Lampang at 8am, although blue sky can be for the first time in a few days. The wife's mood has noticeably deteriorated in this cold patch, so when I explained that we have weeks upon weeks of this weather (only colder and windier) back home in England, she has gone frosty on us visiting the motherland... I suppose every grey cloud has a silver lining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anterian Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Bunch of softies, 17 C here and I still sit outside in bare top and shorts for my breakfast, it is invigorating, particularly with the strong breeze. i feel sorry for the villagers though, three layers of clothes and huddled around fires shivering, even the dogs are wearing jackets. As my cat said, they've gone soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now back to dripping sweat, four showers a day and feeling generally uncomfortable. I am told that the good weather should be back tomorrow though.
