villagefarang Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 An apocalyptic storm. Broken branches and leaks but I managed to save four puppies when their little dirt den turned into a puddle deep enough to drowned them. I am still cleaning up but need a break before I continue.

villagefarang Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 No rain today, but beautiful clear sky and a brisk wind out of the North. Felt like winter this morning. And yes, those lovely mountains off in the distance are looking very inviting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting how something that was started here, has been taken elsewhere and we are no longer copied on the updates. I guess they are just being "Friendly".

RedBullHorn Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) A lot of cleaning up to do today, as we were at the eye/(center or what ever you call it) of the storm yesterday at 6pm, four directions wind rotation at 150km/h. Roofs flew and trees fallen, damn ! They told me this is new year storm. ( change of season storm, last year wasn't this bad as we were at the tail/or what ever you call it of the storm.)

ripstanley Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) Had a shopping trip to Chiang Rai today. Just south of the white temple noticed tree damage. There were crews still removing branches. About 500 metres south of the traffic lights there were a number of cement power poles that had fallen over. Repairs were still being completed on our return journey this afternoon. North bound traffic were directed into the south bound lane for a km. Some businesses had damage to their roofs. Must have been a huge storm to cause that amount of damage Edited March 31, 2013 by ripstanley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 It rained in town yesterday but I returned home to find we had not received a drop. Fortunately that was remedied last night with a light and sound show which accompanied three separate and heavy downpours. Today looks like good mountain bike weather.
