wind guru is saying the rain has all but finished for the next 10 days but i though there was supposed to be a typhoon coming? i guess it must have moved north

It's been downgraded to a tropical depression, now over Cambodia http://www.hko.gov.hk/wxinfo/currwx/tc_gis_e.htm

Looks like it will miss us.

Its been raining pretty much all morning here in Rawai!

Expect this weather to last through Sunday.

Hard rain for the past 20-30 minutes. Some roads flooding, but draining quickly in Kamala. That was a real whopper.

Dry in Kata, but looked like rain for a bit.

The wind has shifted, so that is good news.

Thought we were going to cop it in Chalong, but it passed just to the north of us, Patong, Kamala copped it.

Just one cloud on the radar clear after that.

No rain in the south, and yes the wind has shifted and looks to be in a SW> NE transition.

I noted the same from the rain radar but thought it's just temporary change.

Isn't this a bit early for monsoon change?

Not really, there is usually a couple of weeks where the wind switches between SW and NE. Expect lots of lightening storms with occasional rain before the wind switches to be predominantly from the NE.

Thanks for the info. I did not remember that the lightning storms are part of this time of the year.

Then again, for the past few days/weeks there has been some incredible thunders which makes the concrete floor to shake a bit.

i remember a lot more thunder and lightning in Ko Phangan than i've seen here. more rain here, but less dramatic weather then the gulf i think.

Seems to be the case this year, I also remember more thunder and lightning in previous years.

Yeah seems to be a light year for storms, excepting last night and those two weeks in July. I still remember 01, 02, 03 being nothing but rain comparatively.

Looks like the wind has changed. Hopefully it remains.

There is one big thunderstorm coming towards Phuket.

For you, always.

Back to the thunderstorm during this time of the year. Now it seems that the days are nice and every evening there is an thunderstorm with heavy rain (at least here on north-east).

Now it seems that the rain starts in average a bit later in the evening. Is this just my imagination or have you noticed the same?

not raining in the south (rawai), wish it would, its too freekin' hot for me

Been getting it in Kamala for the last few days. I like it. Keeps it cool and clean

I must say I like the rain as well, for the same reason + I did not have to order water delivery for the past few months.

Earlier I though that Rawai must be nice as they don't have so much rain during the year. At the moment my feeling is the opposite. This might change again when the next rain season is ongoing

Rain never ends (watching the flood outside my house in this moment )

it's official, 6 more weeks to the end of the world as we know it, 21st Dec 2012, the planets are aligning, is Phukets unseasonable weather caused by this, looking at the worlds news something is cooking up
