tropo Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 The drains must have been clogged from so many months of no rain. It didn't rain for long at Cosy Beach. 15 minutes at most. Just long enough to get into a fight with the neighbour who decided she wanted to block my drainage channel with a sandbag. I moved it and then she moved it back again. LOLOL.

tropo Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 A light sprinkling here in Na Jomtien / Bang Saray Temperature did drop last night so no A/C needed but the lawn and garden are still brown The minimum dropped 1°C from 29 °C to 28 °C, so no A/C. LOL. I wish I had your tolerance for heat, but for me it remains A/C all the way. They do say that for every degree you raise the thermostat saves 4 - 5% electricity, so at least it will cost less if the outside temperature is a degree lower.

I don't know where you obtained your figures from but my weather station, in Fahrenheit, showed a drop from 92 , before the rain to 78 after the "sprinkling". By the time we went to bed it had gone back up to 86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
