realthaideal Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I totally appreciate it. I do note that they've shifted around wherever their doppler stations are quite a bit in the last few years. IN fact the CM one is no longer extant, only the Lamphun one... I use it to predict how things are around town so I can plan whether to head out, wait, or cancel based on what I see on the Radar Loop map. Too bad they neglect it so often and either it goes offline, or is just not updating as it is now. It's still displaying midday 4/7. Just kinda griping... I love the service but there's a whole lot of 'mai pen rai' involved with it's up-and-runningness. What other services does anybody else use ? I don't think the US Navy or NOAA sites get as close as the TMD. And wunderground or whatever.... forgetting if they have radar or not. Gonna go recheck. Rant n ramble over.

MESmith Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Totally agree with you. It's a great site, when it works. Fortunately I get great 360 views from my windows, so the "stick your head out the window & look" back up still works. This method worked yesterday & i correctly decided to cancel a hike on the eastern rim of the valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgriffith Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 RTD, I just checked out the Doppler radar- you're right. It used to display nearly real time data. Showing now only images from July 4, up to 8:30 AM. Today is July 6, and we have a big system moving through. Worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulbrun Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 'Windguru' works well, but you have to pay for the more detailed version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulbrun Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 The TMD radar loops are working now. Mine is showing 7/7 for all areas.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulbrun Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Sorry, wrong again. It is working in the south, around Phuket, but not in the north..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realthaideal Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 Still useless. I'm thinking I'm gonna have to give them a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I think it just rained; clearly the weather is working again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
