rapom Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Live about 12km NNE of Surin. It started raining around 2:30am Tuesday. Very heavy rainfall from 3-7 am with strong winds. Rained steady throughout the day with some heavy downpours. Stopped raining about 3pm. Judging by the water level in our pond and ricefields, approximately 4 inches rainfall. Today the rain started around 4:30am and ended before 1pm. Not as heavy as yesterday. Maybe 1-1/2" total. Sunshine rest of day with nice cool breeze. At 10:45 tonight, it started again with very strong downpour, for about 30 minutes. Right now at steady drizzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
