Lasted about an hour. It might have been with all the lightning strikes. Funny enough though when we had these severe wind gusts, not outages at all, as before a strong breeze would have caused an outage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbos Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Just had two very short cut offs of about 2 or 3 minutes each, in Plai Laem, near the Temple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 So - no big winds and no storms. No power last night in Plai Laem for a while, and again, no power this morning. Does anyone know what is going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooo Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 @ hours 8.20 to 10.15 last night in Bophut. On the postive side watched the garden light up with fireflies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mae Nam likewise - but no fireflies. Had all the nearby teenagers sitting on their balconies yelling at each other long-distance from house to house instead. Can't understand why any of them bother with phones . . . R Edited November 6, 2011 by robsamui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what is going on? Was out for dinner there last night. A lorry thundered through with a huge digger loaded on the back, scraping the trees and power lines as it went. I thought that we were in for a power cut, and guess what? Maybe they were driving it back again this morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

premiersportsbar Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 We (Prermier Sports Bar) had a power cut in Bangrak 10 minutes before the 10pm football matches started,,,, good job our generator is working perfect. Otherwise there could have been a marauding mob of angry footy fans roaming the dark streets looking for somthing to do. It also helped all the couch potatos get out n about. rather than roast at home with no electric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that note - it's encouraging that there seem to be a lot of fireflies around this year. We have quite a lot up here in Plai Laem too. sorry Mind you. If I put enough of them in a jar - save on batteries maybe? Edited November 6, 2011 by Tropicalevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
