Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 16th November, 2011

Today's weather;

The blue skies have returned to Koh Samui. It looks like a hot one is shaping. Current temp at 7am is 24.6C

The forecast is telling us to enjoy the current sunny stretch as much as possible since around Sunday there will be a change in pace and strong winds and rain will be on to the island.

Yesterday started out as a wet Koh Samui morning but around noon the sun broke through and the afternoon saw some blue skies with some big white fluffy clouds in it. Max temp reached 30C

Blue sky and big white fluffy clouds yesterday afternoon over Bang Rak

The flood situation remains the same, although a false alarm was given to evacuate parts of the inner city; Paya Thai.
Arrivals at Suvarnabhumi airport are down with 25%, due to the floods and 1.5 million letters and parcels couldn't be delivered so far.

A very strange request is coming through by some of the ruling party's PM's, a new capital city should be chosen, or build so they can fill their pockets.
More disturbing however was a cabinet meeting, without the PM, during which an amnesty decree has been passed for the PM's brother in exile.

Hope to see you soon in the Land of Smiles and if you're planning a trip, please book your hotel rooms on my Samui hotel recommendation blog or my Thailand hotel recommendation blog.
