T_Dog Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) Well, we are in the middle of a Songkran Rain Delay here in Chiang Mai. Just had 20 minutes of hard rain. From the weather radar, it looks like a bigger mass of wet air north of us. No one I know can remember a Songkran like this one. Oh... Thunder and lighting moving in now....

toffo9 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 very very light rain in buriram city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzaa09 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 In Surin, nothing heavy the last couple of days. But has been on again, off again {heavy to light} the last two weeks. Seems as the normal expectations of the "rainy season" starts earlier than not. Almost always around Songkran {last 10 years}......which, historically, has always been dry.
