24th October, 2007

Today's weather;

Same old same old, grey and wet, it's raining right now at 7.20am and on top of that the wind has joined the party as of this morning. Temp right now is 25.4C

Yesterday was wet and grey as well. Rain most of the day with a max temp of 26.2C.



These shots were taken yesterday and are directly around the corner of my house, this picture shows how deep the water is, between my house and the local 7-11.



This picture gives an idea how long the stretch of water is, I'm not half way yet and the car at the opposite side is already in the water.



This is one of the pumps in action all around the island at critical points. This pump is located at the Bophud traffic lights.

I am wondering that if it is possible to see any day without rain in November and go to beach to swim at that time??

Hi,

Today saw the first sunhsine again since a week. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Was at Chaweng Beach and people were enjoying the beach, there were big(gish) waves though, and surfing and body surfing was practiced by all.

Hi,
Is it getting better or worse?
And is it raining during the day or just a couple of hours.

Take Care,

Hi Mustafa,

It seesm it's getting better, just a little bit. Yesterday we had some sunsnhine and this morning it's not as grey as the previous days.

The rain the previous days has been almost non stop the last week, all day long it had been raining, sometimes for hours on an end. Very typical rainy season alike.

You can start doing Open Water courses on the road. That must be quite cheap to do.....

Hi Camille,
What is the recommended actions when it is raining or it is cloudy.
I have booked for 8 days at the beginning of the November and thinking what can we do if it rains all the day.

Take Care,

Mustafa

Hi Mustafa,

There are a few indoor things to do; bowling, movie theatre amongst others.

It seems that the weather may be turning for the better, today we had sunshine again!
