Thai cold: Bangkok temperature dropping fast
By Coconuts Bangkok



BANGKOK: -- Notice how you're able to take a stroll outside with your shirt not dripping with sweat? That's because Bangkok is finally cooling down.

Just in time for the holiday season, Bangkok residents can expect the temperature to drop by 2-4 degrees Celsius next week as the westerly trough from Myanmar will move across the north of Thailand and spread some cool air into the country.

Currently, Bangkok is experiencing temperatures of 23-35 degrees Celsius, with a 20-40 percent chance of rain. The wet days are expected to end this Saturday.

If you call this a temperature drop then I must be mistaken.It is as hat as in March.

The past 3 weeks have been brutally hot and humid...no drop detected although all the regional cities, KL, Singapore, etc....are all in cool season. BKK is apparently in a time warp

I love the weather here... I cannot complain...Ahhhhh sun, sea, sand, jetskams, tuk <deleted>.... what man could ask for more.. unless its totty.

Mixed up report as they are considering the humidity the sme as temprature. Yes they are related but a drop in humidity does not mean it is cooler. I have been in 50C and 2% humidity. It didnt feel really hot but it obviously was

[brownknees]

nananana you got winter.

Bangkok falls to 25-26 at night and rises to 32-35 this week so far.

I suggest a fur coat

'The wet days are expected to end this Saturday.' They're extending later and later into the year.

Rubbish

It should be much, much cooler. Few nts ago wife and self both woke up hot and sticky like Oct weather.

Hope this storm tonite brings the cool.

May is gonna be a monster.

I wake up hot and sticky a lot when the gf stays over.

Not sure it has anything to do with weather though.

IMHO if it is the weather that wakes you up hot and sticky, maybe a regenerating of the relationship via doing something you both find exciting would help?? 5555

Nonsense from coconut...

The last night (3 Dec) was hot like in March or April. And short rainfall only just makes it more humid.

Though still hoping for any start of the so called cold season

[Northwindhermit]

No, I have definitely NOT noticed being able to take a stroll in Bangkok without my shirt dripping with sweat. I walk every day, and I took a (very short) walk this afternoon and came home drenched with sweat blinding my eyes. It is not the Cool Season yet – at least not yet today.

I bought a second powerful fan this week and now have two of them on me at full blast while I am only in swim trunks. After midnight I set them to a slightly lower speed while still half-naked. Sweat City.

I fervently hope that the original article’s author is correct and that some cool relief will come our way, but I’ll only believe it when I have to put on a shirt at home. It is thundering and raining as I type this. I crave that "Blessed coolness, Zen delight."

Oversize font reset to normal.

FYI: Thailand is a tropical country and heat from the big orange in the sky is to be expected.

Stop whining and get on with it.

[millwall_fan]

Bangkok only gets an occasional and short coolish season form mid Dec to mid Feb. If you want to feel cool head up to Chiang Mai or better still the mountains to the North: Doi Mae Salong, Do Wawee, Doi Angharn, etc.

Oven hot in Surin, Isaan doesn't have a cool season

[DennisF]

Not so hot soon.. I lived in Buriram many years and it gets chilly.

Jai yen

[NCC1701A]

Its nice in Hua Hin. I have not been sweating like last year.

[taony]

Seems the opposite to me. I thought there was a slight trend to getting cooler but the padt few days have been really hot and sticky.

It is probably because he hasn't had much sex in his life. Maybe married to Beryl all his life or was bullied at school, so shouting out to the world (on the world wide web) that he is a handsome man massages his ego. Go Dennis.

What a bunch of &lt;deleted&gt;. Weather.com predicts an average high of 35 from 9-14 December.

The maroons at Coconut must have posted an article from last year.

[dukeandduke]

By the way, mods, I did not use a curse word in the last post, just an alternate spelling one letter fewer than Shiite. Let's see if that goes through.

[lamyai3]

Temperature definitely feels much cooler tonight than I've felt in a while.

[CLW]

I think I'm dreaming. [emoji23]

I can feel a cold breeze today in Bangkok, even at noon time.

[millwall_fan]

Sitting in my Bangkok flat without so much as a fan on. Not often I can say that! Is our annual respite from the furnace about to start?

[soalbundy]

What is so unusual about the cold season? seems to happen every year, here in my neck of Isaan it is only cold in the morning, evening and night, it's bloody hot during the day.

[The Big Mango]

Pretty sure it was snowing in Phuket today ,

Yes takin the iss.

Its just &lt;deleted&gt; degress of hotness.

Cool at 30 plus degrees , really?

[mca]

Sitting outside my condo on lower suk writing this and the temperature is glorious. I'm enjoying the slight nip in the air.

[Crossy]

Yup ^^^, decidedly chilly here in Pathum 23C @ 54% humidity. Brrrrrr.
