Wild seas. Are they calm now?

[Roy Jing]

I know there has been some rough conditions on the water recently but I was just wondering if anyone can confirm if things have calmed down a bit now.

Are the ferries between Donsak and the islands running and on schedule? More importantly, is it safe to travel?

Cheers

Yes, No problems at the moment.

Yes, it hugely improved over last week.... and the haze has gone too!

all around the island the beaches are now calm ... This was Maenam beach today Amazing how quickly it gets to be looking nice again!

Maybe a stupid question but there might be some weather guru's here....

Any ideas how it will be over the next 2 weeks? I plan to go down from bkk for a few days soon but not waiting for rough weather and rain. Seems a bit odd for this time of the year?

Best sign of long-term calm sea and weather is when the original Samui Maenam-Koh Phangan Tong Nai Pan ferry operates – the first this year has just arrived today at so-called "Maenam Pier" – normally the ferry-season begin mid January...

Maenam Pier 14th February 2016, 11:17 am – almost same position as Jimmy's photo in post #5, but view to the other side of Maenam Bay.

East coast southern provinces to see strong waves and winds on 16-19 Feb

It's pretty windy, don't expect a smooth ride but I think the ferries will be running if it doesn't get any worse.
