toybits Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Just returned from Amnat Charoen and Ubol. Really cold and windy.. The type of wind you normally would expect of a Typhoon... Just relentless wind - almost like wading in a fast flowing river or creek. Sure it's not Everest Cold but for locals, this is cold. Back in Chiang Rai, it is also cold. 9 deg. celcius today and overcast with some light showers. Took my motorbike to return home in light rain last night. Regret not having my gloves because my fingers were really getting ice cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your point?Do I really need to spell it out?If you wouldn't mind. When the ambient temperature drops below 25, the ski jackets come out So when it's cold people dress warmly. How profound You do realise that 16 is 20 degrees less than the norm. That's like the UK going from 20 (Nice bikini weather for Hyde Park) to 0...or do you expect people in London to stay in T Shirt and shorts when the temperature drops. Now I bet you sweat your balls off when you came here and the temp was 30+ (Quite mild for me...I only start feeling hot in Kanchanaburi when its 40) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lujanit Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 We went to a wedding reception beside the river in Ayutthaya yesterday evening starting 1700. People including me were dressed for warmer weather with lots of women wearing skimpy dresses. The wind was quite strong and the temperature was bitterly cold. Most people tried to huddle out of the wind. We, along with quite a few other people left as soon as we could congratulate the happy couple. We stayed maybe an hour tops.
