skildpadden Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Isn't "cold spell" a rather strong expression when it in fact means that temperature in Bangkok will fall to around 30 degrees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Accuweather is showing 33 degrees for Saturday and 34 for Sunday. Thailand's own weather bureau shows 34 and 35. Doesn't sound cooler to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard_smith237 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Accuweather is showing 33 degrees for Saturday and 34 for Sunday. Thailand's own weather bureau shows 34 and 35. Doesn't sound cooler to me. A simple drop in humidity would be welcomed !!.. The recent 'cool' a few weeks ago was lovely... I had to put my socks on while enjoying my AM coffee on my balcony !

Thunder26 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yes. it will be cooler, but you can't call it a cold spell when the temperatures will not drop below 22 degrees Celsius in Bangkok at night. No need for jackets anyway. It will be just a pleasant refreshment for a couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tominbkk Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 My iPhone does not indicate this. It is actually set to get hotter. And my iPhone is usually lore accurate than the Thai Meteorological Department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humidity right now is 51% here, very comfortable. At night around 9 pm it's around 66%. Not bad for Thailand, could be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
