spidermike007 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 One can only hope. It has been dry as a bone, and hotter than a witches tit. Hope it rains, and cools down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketsub Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 That was a very poor selection of a weather radar image to attach to this story. Anyway, at least the monsoon has let up and the moon is visible for LoyKratong (not that I will be participating). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
