chops Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I just moved to Chiang Rai the other month ago and I am freezing! Last few days have been nothing but drizzling rain and cold. I've never been colder in Thailand in ever before like this. I hope it's not like this all the time. I might need to buy a heater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckamuck Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Nobody has seen it this cold this time of year, don't worry you will be sweating like a pig soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiPauly Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 None of us have ever experienced weather like this in mid-march, its normally 35 degrees at least by now. Something to do with a cold front coming in from China so I have heard, but yes it is very unusual. But this time last year you could hardly see your hand in front of your face as the polution was so bad. I'm enjoying it while it lasts to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanForbes Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Of course it's always this cold in March. I was just skiing up Doi Suthep yesterday. We had a great time. There's a big ski lodge up there with dome shaped buildings all covered in gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinnieTheKhwai Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Wasn't it Thaksin (or someone in his government) who proposed a ski resort with artificial snow for Chiang Mai? that would be so awesome. Best après ski ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
