NathonJules Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Very heavy wind and rain in the moutains of Taling Ngam too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbos Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Flooding in Chumpon and Ranong. Samui is actually upgrading facilities little by little and one at a time, less hot spots and less areas flood now. Recent additions; in front of the ghost road almost completed and currently about to start work in front of Wat Plai Laem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 (edited) OOdles of rain and strong winds lashing the NE tip of Samui at the moment. Flights have just started again as the winds die down. Well first plane that I have heard for an hour or two, so I assume that they had stopped. Edited June 6, 2012 by Tropicalevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuijimmy Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 After reading reports of other areas of Thailand, I think we can consider our selves relatively lucky.... we still seem to have some pretty good winds, the rain has eased off (so far since yesterday afternoon, in Maenam anyway!!! ) I am not sure I would want to be out in a boat or ferry.... And no power cuts? ..... fingers xxx !!!! I have to head south soon.... how and when to go is the question! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbos Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Ferries to mainland are running on schedule. Leave for Phuket tomorrow afternoon, weather predictions are fine over the weekend with Phuket supposedly even having better conditions compared to Samui,according to Windguru.

Didn't help the fact the cabin crew where ginning out the paper featuring a plane crash I am sure I read something about thermals and currents in the air (maybe I made that up) that say flights into the Samui/Surat area tend to be a little dodgy with cross winds. Always seems ropey when I fly to/from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John 1 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Reported in Bkk post a Raja ferry washed ashore at Lipa Noi yesterday no injuries but with 50 cars on board I could imagine some damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
