Once the wind shifts, they'll get more rain than us! Edited February 24, 2013 by Jimi007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petercallen Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 We had a good heavy rain storm yesterday, the first one this month I wish we would get one once or twice a week there would still be plenty if fine weather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 One strong, but small sized storm coming towards Ao Por at the moment (looking at the rain radar). Outside the sky is getting darker and thunder sounds coming from distance. Is it the last remnants of the NE monsoon or the beginnings of the SW one? It would be 2 months early for the SW monsoon.

bunta71 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 When seeking an accurate weather report I simply look out the window. Very specific to my location and usually accurate for the next 30 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assumed it was just thunder. I think it was thunder, but as we have had few minor quakes here, it's an posibility. I never felt anything when the quakes struck Phuket (or Koh Yao), just heard the loud bang at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tolsti Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Nice little 'pop up' storm came through about 15 mins ago.... I had already checked the radar and the big stuff inbound had dissipated ..... Checked it again and the storm was clear....just as it reached the coast it suddenly intensified from zero to hero and along came the rain. Single cell, back to nothing again now.
