limbos Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 It eased already, as is usually the case with Windguru. The rain is still predicted but the wind has slowed down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandBert Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I'm hoping it arrives as planned as I need my tanks topping up and without the rain it has to be trucked in. Looking very overcast at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livinthailandos Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 As for the thrusday and friday forcast in terms of rain: Windguru, accuweather, wunderground are all showing rain, although accuweather says as of right now 21.1 M of rain on the way but this covers for today, tomorrow, and friday As for heavy rain I just read in parts of phuket and bangkok there having some minor flooding already in some areas As for the rain coming just be nice just to get some rain as there has not been much rain to samui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Well that turned out to be false hope.... same as Thailandbert's report ..... a bit of a downpour and a bunch of breezy "hot air" ... actually nice cool air!

Tropicalevo Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 We did not even get the downpour up here on the NE. Just loads of wind. From memory - we have only had about an hour's rain in the last six months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samui Coconut Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 We did not even get the downpour up here on the NE. Just loads of wind. From memory - we have only had about an hour's rain in the last six months. It was more than 1 hour sure....but not much/enough to fill the reservoirs.

lom Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 It was more than 1 hour sure....but not much/enough to fill the reservoirs. Weather radars says rain within an hour, looks like it will last a bit longer than yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric1949 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Inland from Wat Lamai, it's pouring down, and has been for at least an hour. It did yesterday as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Here in Plai Laem I can see rain over KPG, Maenam and all points west. It is sunny spells here! How about sharing some of the rain guys? As I said - nothing here for yonks The plants in this area are gasping. (Mind you - the strong winds are ripping tiles off my neighbour's roof!)

If it does rain - the next beer is on me. Well - having asked for rain at 15.36, we managed to get approx 20 minutes of light rain at 14.36. So, thank you to whoever sent it my way. More please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooo Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I'm getting drenched here. Just down the road from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Yep - tropical storms are amazing. Here dry for yonks - 1 km away - hacking it down with rain for hours on end. I think that it is something to do with the 'funnel' effect of the wind running inbetween KPN and Samui. It always seems dry here when the rest of the area is covered in cloud. Great for renters, lousy for the plants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got delayed 'up north' and only arrived back on Samui this morning. Within four hours, a heavy downpour for an hour or so in Plai Laem for you Trop, just like I promised. Can't wait for that beer!

Tropicalevo Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 (edited) Heavy downpour? That was only a light drizzle up here. First 'wet stuff' for ages. Mind you - big wind gusts. However - a beer is yours. Are you going to the Thai Visa party? Edited October 7, 2012 by Tropicalevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkie100 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Well, I was going to predict more rain to come but won't bother now. Rooo can take the flack if it doesn't arrive. Hope to be at the party, Trop and look forward to meeting you. I hope it doesn't rain on the night and spoil the evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 On Saturday I was going to head to Lamai, but cancelled cos it looked like it might pour down, ... then nothing happened! Yesterday I headed in to Maenam and got soaked on the way back with a 5 minute rain blast! You can't win! But my neighbours say, big rains to start 22 Oct.... they must have their crystal ball out! ..... I'll have them apply for Rooo's opening in help wanted...

Have to ask Poorsucker foe one of our special crystal balls.We don't give them out to all & sundry. Bert has one coming .On the 22nd a cabinet meeting will take place on Samui,so perhaps a shower of a different type will take place ( I mean verbal type ).. Jim , if no rain today I will buy you a GT I like it when you are under the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
