dcutman Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 The other paper is reporting, several dams have begun releasing large volumes of water upstream, the domino effect has begun. Looks like Ayutthaya is gonna be sacrificed again. YS is now working on her, "its only your imagination, you're not up to your neck in water" speech. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she will be able to promote Thailands vast areas of floating markets to the "high end" tourism market. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dibbler Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Bangkok will not be affected as, after the 2011 floods, the BMA already dredged all the canals through the city so they wouldnt clog up next time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warriorbangkok Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 As far as I can tell, it has been raining very heavily in lots of provinces to the north and northeast of Thailand with many provinces being flooded. Since Thailand is a sloped country, this means that all of this water is going to flow downhill to Bangkok, doesn't it? Can anyone confirm or refute my above statement? Additionally, does anyone know approximately when we can expect the runoff to hit Bangkok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 For information, I flew down to Bkk on the morning flight from Phitsanulok and arrived in Ban Chang at just before midday. Phits dry (there was a light rain all night but dried off), Bkk dry and sunny and Ban Chang the same. Didn't get any rain on the trip from Bkk to Ban Chang. That said, it did look like a wet Thailand from the air, a lot of water about on the flight down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind, what mind, I don't need no stinking mind to point at a map, go to Pakistan for talks and go to the EU to go shopping. Big Brother in Montenegro gave me a list. Do I need a mind for that?
