Popular Post stevenl Posted March 23, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2014 Unfortunately TMD has not earned any trust or confidence in the past with their predictions. Whenever they say: strong winds, you know it is the perfect time to go out on a small boat, when they say 'no wind, better be careful of strong winds. Same for the rain. Windguru is not totally reliable as well but much, much better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windguru is not totally reliable as well but much, much better. +1 That's right... TMD don't earn any confidence nor get their things together. EX.: Rain radar loop at <http://www2.tmd.go.th/radar/pkt120Loop.php>. The high trained stuff thinks 4 images with an interval of 3 HOURS will make a visual loop of the rain clouds. Many times mentioned, but the reaction or repair is ZERO since weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinginKata Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Well, there was a few minutes of heavy rain in Patong circa 22.00 last night. Even took out the electricity for nearly an hour on Nanai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
