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.

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.

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
