This is my first couple of months in C.M. I think these cooler nights are great. However, all good things must come to an end. When can I expect the change in C.M.?

Too soon.

I'm guessing about the end of February, but this year is warmer than usual, so maybe a little sooner (but I hope not).

What cooler temperature?

This year is dam_n hot.

Loverly up in MHS. And very clear skies. Shame to have to come home

No idea what it is like up there but down here 50 km north of BKK can't wait.......... it is sooooo cold.. 9 years and still wish I had an electric blanket on the bed, sat here with my thermal underwear on + long sleeve T-shirt, drinking hot coffee and very cold.

Thankfully will not last more than a month or 2., another 2 hours and can sit out in the sun and warm up a bit

Unfortunately the temps have been going up daily and I will miss the little bit of cool that we had this year. I only had to wear socks for a few days this winter.

10.15am and I'm sweating already. Usually at this time of year I've got my old Marks and Sparks woolly poolly on until midday and from 7pm onwards. It will start to become uncomfortably hot by late Feb/early March and by then the air quality will have deteriorated considerably and Doi Suthep will become a memory until the rains start sometime end of April/beginning of May

The last 2 years, it has started raining really early and cooled things off during hot season. I'm hoping for a third year in a row..

Too soon.

Is this an example of how one can get over 5,700 posts to his credit?

It is the kind of post I make when someone is too lazy to google and get results like this.

It's not cold as all this season except the first week of december. Just nice warm. When the heat comes, the pollution comes with it.
