Desperately need the rain.

Shame that that the weather is going to be so severe.

That's farming.

Take precautions.

The weatherman must have inside knowledge of the flying schedule for the rainmaking and anti hail squad

Does TAT present the weather nowadays?

Does TAT present the weather nowadays?

I think so, as there has been a lot more weather this year than last. Data shows that it will continue to increase all year, especially from China and India, reaching record levels. Figures on the increase in revenue from this weather are currently being made up.

What a bold prediction to make....in rainy season!

Throughout the Western world, meteorology and baseball are the two professions, where you can be wrong 70% of the time, and still make alot of money. It may not apply here, as the salaries are notoriously low. But, it appears that a limited amount of talent is required to be a weatherman. How could they be wrong so often?

How could they be wrong ?

chemtrails ...HAARP and weather control ?

You'd lose here. Had heavy rain in Somdet (Kalasin) this morning. And my phone tells me we have thunderstorms or rain for the next week with the max temperature falling to 29.

Yes, I hear the same stories from people in surrounding areas.

Apart from one storm a few days ago, Khon Kaen has had relatively little.

And we all know phones are both infallible, and never wrong. Do not count on the weatherman. Ever. Hope and pray for rain, but do not count on them to forecast it.

[sawadee1947]

it's funny....on my phone there is installed AccuWeather.com. Whenever I check the weather forecast it predicts rain for the following day. But then, when the day comes, it will be delayed to the next. And so on.,

For what they need here a forecast anyway if it is so unreliable...?
