Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 13th April, 2014

Today's weather;

It's looking like it's going to be a hot and warm Songkran or Thai New Year today around Koh Samui with a near perfect blue sky. Current temp at 7am is 26.7C

A nice blue sky is also shaping up over Khao Lak with a slightly hazy sky at the moment. Current temp at 7am is 25.3C

The Songkran road madness has started; Some 39 people were killed and 402 others injured in road accidents nationwide on Friday, the first day of the Songkran holiday period from April 11-17, according to the Road Safety Centre. Drunken driving was the major cause at 31 per cent, followed by speeding at 22 per cent. 

Here's a good article from the Nation on how the lawless culture takes it's toll on the Thai roads.

Enjoy Songkran but be careful out there!

Yesterday saw a very warm day around Samui, April at it's best with a max temp of 34C

The forecast is looking good with mostly sunny skies predicted for the next 7 days and occasionally some clouds.
