themerg Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Love it. Glad I do not own a car. Last hailstorm in 2545, had 200 small dents in my pickup truck, did not break paint, pissed me off good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post themerg Posted April 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Chiang Mai needs rain. past 2 weeks there has been very heavy rain, thunder, and lightning 4 times in Hang Dong, by big Buddha,(18 km from Canal Road and Huay Kaew Road) on Canal Road. Rained nit noi for 10 minutes in Chiang Mai in same 2 weeks. Gets any drier in Chiang Mai, there will be wild fires starting everywhere. Buddha, we need rain.

Yes....I went out for the lunar eclipse on the 4th, but the moon never came back. Seems like between that, and the 7 Eleven 90 day reporting (the forum's april fool's joke), that I have be doing a lot of standing around and waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'm trying to follow the OP article... and admittedly never earned my degree in meteorology. But wouldn't having "hot to very hot weather across the country this week" be kind of inconsistent with also predicting thunderstorms and in particular HAIL, given that hail is ice??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Ingalls Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Someone is not reading the story, "Hail to affect Thailand this weekend" Yet the last line reads, "tropical storm from China not to affect Thailand " So make up your mind. Is there or isn't there going to be a weather pattern thats going to effect the northern part of Thailand this weekend? I'm getting tired of reading these conflicting reports. They kind of match the conflicting reports of the Government in action! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They kind of match the conflicting reports of the Government in action! There is nothing conflicting about it at all. There is a cell which is going to affect Thailand this week. The cyclone currently off the Philippines will dissipate before reaching the coast, and will have no affect on Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiver Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I would love to spend songkran in the rain. I've never seen rain over songkran (9 years here so far), but have often wondered if they'd run for cover and the streets empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masuk Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I would love to spend songkran in the rain. I've never seen rain over songkran (9 years here so far), but have often wondered if they'd run for cover and the streets empty. It really poured down late one afternoon during songkran in 2013. As I was halfway back to the car, watching people running from the rain, it seemed a bit odd as we'd been pouring water over each other all day. Bring it on!!!

finnomick Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 bring it on! I got hundreds of trees that would be most appreciative. After the hail storm we had on Monday night of LAST week ( the 30th of March ) in Prakhon Chai, we've got NO trees left. It's like someone's gone over the land with a chain saw or similar. 15 houses in the village flattened too so don't be too eager..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
