Bangkok Battered by Summer Storm (Photos)

BANGKOK — Thunder and lightning and buckets of rain opened up on the capital as storms hit much of the nation Saturday.

After a month of scorching Sun which saw record-breaking heat wave and unprecedented spike of electricity use, the City of Angel was showered with a relieving spell of rain showers since noon, as predicted by the Department of Meteorology.

But the torrent of rain also means that traffic was snarled on some flood-prone roads, especially in downtown Sukhumvit.

Bring it on. I can't wait for rainy season to start.

Who ever named Bangkok the City of Angels was probably high and having flashbacks from another time. As the song says (One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble). Any info on this subject?

As Freddie Mercury once said:

"Thunderbolt and lightning, very very frightening me!"

He was a master of Thaiglish.

Flooding is fun!? You jest of course; I am hoping you are. Or maybe you didn't live through the hell of 2011. Ask the relatives of the dead from electrocution if they thought is was fun. Ask the tens of thousands of people who lost nearly everything through water damage if it was fun.

Sad post from you really.

He said negative IONS, not vibes.

Stop pissing on the man's parade just because someone popped your balloon.

I don't think humour is fitting when dealing with death and destruction. Nothing to do with popping anyone's balloon

Freedom4life was quite obviously talking about the rain event as reported on Saturday...., we all were commenting about Saturdays rain storm..., no one was hurt then - ok.
Pull your head in and allow others their own light hearted opinions. Maybe take a Bex, have a cup of tea and then have a good lay down.
You can thank me later wai.gif
