rooster59 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Thailand to experience sharp drop in temperature next week By The Nation Thailand will see temperatures plunging by three to five degrees next week on the back of heavy rain in many parts of the country over the weekend, the Meteorological Department announced. In its special warning issued at 5am Saturday, the department said there would be thundershowers, gusty winds and heavy rain in upper Thailand Saturday and Sunday. The department attributed the weather condition to a monsoon trough sitting over the lower North, the upper Central and the lower Northeast and a low pressure system over the South China Sea while a moderate high-pressure system from China hung over upper Vietnam and Laos. The department said the sharp fall of temperature from Monday to Thursday would be caused by a moderate high-pressure system from China.

If you have a hot climate you have hot weather and in a cold climate you have cold weather apart from during the regular seasonal variations.

Pilotman Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 well the Thai Met Department have been almost 100% wrong on every prediction that they have made in the last 12 months, so I will take this latest one with the usual 'pinch of salt'. As my old flying boss used to say, Meteorologists are in the only profession where you can spend your whole career being wrong and still get promoted.

Beggar Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 If you don't want to spend money for the real thing there are other options to keep you warm at night. Simply fill in hot water and enjoy a warm night for reasonable money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder26 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 There will be cooler maybe in the North and mountain tops, but nothing for central part. It will get actually warmer during the next week with usual 35 degrees in the shade starting from Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Bob Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Angrit-language media here love to use words like "plunge" and "plummet" and "crisis" to describe any kind of cool snap (with temps considered as picnic-friendly in many farang countries). O M G ! ! ! prepare to wear a shirt with sleeves and maybe even socks at night ! ! ! ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Wonderful. Lower temps. What a delight. No doubt a few monks will freeze from hypothermia. But, life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if any comply? My landlord gave me the bill every months and I went to pay it. He never overcharged. Not even before the law came into force.
