There's another tropical depression in the South China Sea which is expected to hit southern Vietnam tommorow. It may bring rain, some heavy, to East and South Isaan on about the 17th. Those of you with rice in the fields may be advised to let your families know of this. Rain at this time of year is unusual, my rice has been harvested but we are having trouble in getting it dry, having to gather it up and cover with tarps when it rains. See......http://www.tmd.go.th/en/list_warning.php

To late got hit yesterday afternoon for 90 minutes. Worked until 10 last night back out at 5 this morning.Just in to take a break. But thanks anyway for the heads up.Starting to get dark again. Kap Choeng.

Rained hard for a short time last night. Rice still in the field. Heard about more rain. Is this the tail of the storm that hit the Philippines? South of BuiYai

The storm is not hitting here its chonburi and southern provinces

The main focus of the storm may not be hitting here, but it has been raining on and off for the last couple of days.

There certainly are a lot of threads for this topic.

That doesn't look very close to Kap Choeng to me - and several of your earlier predictions were eventually off the mark.

After this evening you are more likely to need sunscreen than an umbrella!

Looks like just the Southern parts of Issan may be affected. Rainfall (as we all know) in this part of the World can be very patchy, soaking in one village, bone dry in the next . Best to err on the safe side in the rice harvesting season.

Glad I got my rice picked and dried before the rains here in Ubon.

Edited: Sorry, the wife's rice

Not a drop here. Looked threatening but got the grass cut late afternoon. Chilly, 21 degrees with a wind-chill factor.

Just stopped raining in KC.

Looks a bit like it's running out of steam quite significantly if you look at the moving weather satellite pictures over today (famous last words no doubt)but there's still a chunky bit of heavy rain storm stuck out off the coast of Vietnam - could go anywhere

Kap Choeng. 22 C, cloudy and cool. tmd is saying 40% today 30% tomorrow.

Couple of hours light rain here in Sakon Nakhon last night. Today cool & overcast.
