snoop1130 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 The South suffers heavy flooding as rains refuse to let up By The Nation Severe flooding continued to ravage many parts of the South including Nakhon Si Thammarat, Trang and Phatthalung provinces Thursday, affecting tens of thousands of people, damaging property and interrupting transportation. Two deaths from the flooding were reported in Nakhon Si Thammarat and Phatthalung each. Trains to the lower South could go no further than Surat Thani as the Thung Song Train Station in Nakhon Si Thammarat’s Thung Song district had to be closed due to flooded rail tracks. Also Thursday, Transport Co Ltd suspended buses scheduled to go through the heavily flooded Thung Song district.

4evermaat Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Chumphon isn't as bad as it was 3 weeks ago, but it is still a dreary way to start the new year. A friend sent an image from hat yai as of yesterday and today. I couldn't imagine having to go through that. Yet Bangkok had this like 2 or 3 years ago for weeks?

Stargeezr Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Wish some of this rain came a bit further north to fill some of the dams around Hua Hin and even over Pattaya way. I guess it is just the luck of the deep south to get too much rain. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketsub Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 The floodwater is now as high in Ranode as it was during the first inundation on/around December 5. The water seems to be a lot dirtier/siltier this time around....Somehow we still have electricity and wife (self-evident I know)...still raining now with a low pressure system coming from the west this time...

Stocky Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Rain all day today in Hat Yai. Looking out of the window I can see the river level is up but we've still about 4m to go before it would over-top the flood defenses here. Flood warning flag is still at green.
