Asiantravel Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) You gotta feeling did you? Anyone who can read a weather-history chart of Thailand could make such astounding declarations. Well the original poster wasn't able to do that successfully? Anyway, I brought forward my date for season change to today ! its happened Edited October 26, 2014 by Asiantravel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkles Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Sorry, not according to 10-day forecast...30-80% chance of rain everyday. personally I don't feel the change of season yet, still too much humidity in the air. But you are right Winnie, the change is quick and concise. 10 day forecast ?? they cant, the majority of times, even get the next 24 hours right.Its usually........ sunny,some cloud, with a chance of rain, sort of covers all possibilities. 30-80 % chance of rain is quite a margin,sounds more like a stab in the dark. 30 degrees max at our place today. I cant accept that any temperature that is over 25 + as cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaleySabai Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Since the change of season is usually abrupt I can safely correspond the arrival of winter with the termination of the use of my fan and "summer" is when I turn it back on. Too much humidity in the air .....fan still on. Life is so simple here with such benign elements...no snow shovel in hand,like where I used to live. Hopefully the cool-season will be much like last year - started like Nov.01 and stretched into Feb. Lovely it was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
femi fan Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Posted 9/10/2014 8:57:48 p.m. I'm sure you'll regret your call early! It seems that every year at the beginning of October it does not rain, it cools a bit, and everyone says the rainy season is over. Others, as usual, was not saying it to me. Then, in the second half of October we have a last breath of rain, as if the rainy season says' there is no dupe "and squeezing the last bit of action on itself. We had a rather dry rainy season this year, but even if I intend to rain to come along, and maybe it will even be lost in November. The key to a dry-rainy season is unusually wet June 1, we've had this year. But the end often seems to be a dry first half of October and a second half wet. We'll see! So, keep those umbrellas handy ... A prescient post. The capricious nature and the current weather in your favor. And for the medium-term evolution of the Dow Jones what is your opinion? Since you asked, medium and long-term: get out of it. All going downhill from here! Short-term might still be okay, but not my scene. I'll stick to climate...

Sparkles Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Just when you thought it was the end of the rainy season it has returned. Leaving Chiang Dao today after 2 days of glorious cool mountain air and sunny skies we have returned to soaking rain.No complaints, saves watering the garden but might put a dampener on Loy Kratong. if it continues. Weather anywhere these days is totally unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MESmith Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) It's been forecast for nearly a week now. Been big storms east of Chiang Mai in the mountains for a few days now. Finally come down to the valley. No complaints, loving it The humidity has been high for a week at least. Just a matter of time before it broke. I'm surprised folk are surprised.

arunsakda Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 31 degrees centigrade at CNX right now, I think it was 35 yeaterday. Night cooling off nicely as well Looking at the weather charts there is a high near Mandalay and several over China. Not much chance of significant change for the next week or so, I'd reckon. Some are saying the "Siberian High" is forming late this year. This may be related to Anthropogenic Climate Disruption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcore Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 re Be great if it stayed like this all year doi sutheps looking nice and clear this morning dave2 Unfortunatly, on the way back from Mae Joe on Friday, large tracks of rice fields going up in smoke. Tenders visible and stoking the fires? Enforcement - Haha. I have a sneaky suspicion we are in for a brutal and early burning season. The farmers cannot grow a 3 rd harvest this year so all that is left to do is........? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konini Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 No photograph, but as the sun was coming up this morning I sat back and enjoyed really spectacular colours on the mountain, it must have been indicative of it being the perfect day.

MESmith Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I was out and about on my bicycle in rural CM early this morning. It was cold, 15C. In the villages I passed through, it was awful. so much smoke. This wasn't fires to keep warm, it was SMOKE. Damp leaves & garden cuttings piled up & smouldering. Thai villagers appear determined to send themselves to an early grave. "Amazing Thailand" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haybilly Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Since this is a thread about the cold-ish weather of late--I have a question, does anyone know where one could buy a reasonably decent [not sub-zero, Arctic type] sleeping bag in CNX? My daughter went on a couple of school trips to higher altitudes last year and her thin sleeping bag didn't really do the job--I am hoping to find one before she needs it next time.

haybilly Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Just to follow up on my own question, in case anyone else is interested. As the previous posters said there are 2 places in KSK on the second floor- heading round the back to SportsWorld on the left is a very good quality camping supplies shop with very high spec sleeping bags- for my daughter's needs probably too high end-and also SportsWorld have some lower quality, but definitely good enough if one is not going camping at anywhere with temperatures around freezing, apparently alright down to around 7 degrees. The ones in SportsWorld are on sale at the moment at around 1000 baht. The high quality ones start at around 2800 and go up to 7000 baht for full down filling.
