High Season Weather

[grumpyoldman]

Thanks Oilinki !

Yes, the day it cleared, I think it was Wednesday, I too blasted up to Mai Khao to see some customers, really pretty up there, just as your photo shows.

A resort I was very impressed with, The Rennaissance, one not so impressing, Holiday Inn. Just so secluded up there........

that rain came a bit faster than windguru predicted this time, a few days ago windguru was saying thursday. anyhow, looks like we are in for another few days of wet stuff.

Rain got rid of the flies, for now.

Great weather this morning. I was just about to get to my motorbike and drive to the south to check some geocaches and take pictures. Then checked the rain radar which shows that in one hour or so it's going to pour heavily again.

Now the rain seems to go a bit over Phuket.

I'm not going to bet on that time range, but what is said is said. Therefore 1 beer at a local bar (when ever we are going to have the Phuket meeting or we meet otherwise) if the rain hit's or not Phuket before 3pm today?

sure, but since i can only verify what happening from my house, it has to be over chalong circle

(BTW, is betting beer on the weather even legal in thailand?)

I'm in Chalong not far from Chalong Circle and it's been hot and dry all day. Blue skies, sun beating down at the moment.

Great movie. Much of it filmed in Phuket.

Looks like we are in for several days of wind and rain. Heavy wind and rain in Rawai for a couple hours now.

Edit: Yep..just noticed this in the inbox: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/583835-heavy-rain-warning-as-monsoon-soaks-phuket-andaman-coast/#entry5659251

I did not know that. I have not seen it in years. I'll have another look.

I think this http://www2.tmd.go.t.../pkt120Loop.php is whacked out.

Totally agree. At the moment it's better than it has been though inadequate for our purposes. We used to be able to use it as a prediction of imminent rain disrupting play on our tennis courts. Not any more. It has been in a steady state of deterioration over the last 8 or so months ago when it was down for 1 week then a further 2 weeks but in general it's as useless as tits on a bull. There is an 85* segment missing over the southern part of the island. Nuff said.

I shudder to think that, as this receiver is based at Phuket airport, is it also the feed for incoming and departing aircraft as a guide to local weather conditions.

Ironical that today is the 5th. anniversary of the one to go disaster. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/584554-no-memorial-service-for-victims-of-one-two-go-flight-crash/

Now it has been raining huge amounts at least here in NE-Phuket. Has there been any reports of land slides?

aonangweather said that yesterday there was 140mm rain at Phuket Town.

[Guest]

23C this morning. The floors of my home has been "wet" for the last few days as slightly warmer and moisture air meets the colder tiles during the day.

This morning there was at least 5 minutes of sun shine, that could continue for an while..

[GiantFan]

Some rain this AM, but now sunny in Patong. Haven't seen that in a while.
