And the wheather is quiet? Nothing in sight?

There were some severe weather warnings yesterday.

weather is quiet. not one boat. only the moored fishing boats. no tourists returning from the islands, no boat touts on the footpath. not sure about Bali Hai tho. quite pleasant actually. people are swimming in the boat zones without fear of being hit by a jetski or chopped up by a propeller

Thats the problem with Pattaya, too many bad curry houses.

Order of the Marine Office, they did not allow any boat to go out. I am not in Pattaya, so I do not know the conditions of the sea, just heard it from a friend owning a dive shop.

Should have seen the weather in jomtien. Ripped up and beached the swimming pontoons.

My condo looks down over the bay and the water is choppier than I have seen it for a good while...

Poor rip-off operators. Whatever are they going to do?

I personally would like to see the military line them up and gun them down on live TV, as a warning to every dirt bag in the nation to knock it off or face a firing squad.

Never happen of course, but one can dream.

What I suspected (post #2).

A friend juts told me, he returned from Bangkok yesterday and was afraid he would be blown down on his motorbke taxi from Suk due to the heavy blasts.

Pay per view ?? Could generate a lot of money...... I see the military has just finished gutting the Phuket taxi mafia. For sure the jet ski mafia, which has give Pattaya a black eye for years, is soon

due up on the chopping block. Happy times ahead !!!

thanks for the info. never heard of them doing that before. it wasnt very rough in Pattaya but I imagine Jomtien and the trip to the island would have been.

About yesterday, this order clearly concerned only small boats.

The (bigger) boats to/from Koh Larn were working as usual.

There are economic problems everywhere so tourists cannot afford to come

Australian prime minister Tony Abbott must have arrived.

Joke for Aussies there

Very windy conditions today at Jomtien, and the fishing boats were not going out. About the swimming pontoons, Just wondering how long they will last. Was at the beach a couple days ago, the plastic bolts and nuts, that hold the pontoons together, were scattered up and down the beach. Once the bolt is out, then the pontoons will start to rip apart. Gotta be a better system to mark the swimming areas!

Same on Saturday - too choppy, so no jet-skis allowed.
