Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 13th July, 2015

Today's weather;

It's cloudy this morning over Koh Samui and it looks like it might stay this way, although the sun tries to break though.. Right now there's no wind to speak of but that may change as well later during the day. Current temp at 7am is 27.5C

Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 13th July, 2015

Two monkeys on a motorbike near Nathon. These kind of monkeys are being used to harvest coconuts from the trees, a very old Koh Samui tradition.

Yesterday turned out to be a very nice and mostly sunny day with a fairly strong breeze all day long. Max temp reached 33C

The forecast predicts one more time some strong wind tomorrow during the afternoon and night and then slowly taper off. At this moment it doesn't look like we will have a lot of sunshine after Wednesday though.

Hi Camille,

Great blog!

We are heading to Samui on July 27th and I am slightly worried about the weather. I know rain showers are to be expected at these times but it looks like there is a lot of cloud cover!

Best,
Roxanne

Hi Roxanne,
Towards the end of July, you should usually have plenty of sunshine. It's too early though to be bale to predict anything at this moment.
Please have a look at my archives, halfway down the page on my Samui info and weather blog, right hand side, they go back a few years. Open a month that you’re interested in and check one of the last posts of each month, starting with ‘Goodbye to…………’ this post will tell you the weather conditions for that month.
You can also check each individual post for that month if you wish to.

Hi Camille, great blog! so much information and thanks for sharing! I'm planning my wedding next year in Koh Samui in July/August and we are really worried that weather wouldn't turn out great during that time. I understand it's normal to have short rain showers but we are also worried that it will be really cloudy. Do you mind advising me which is the best month between May to August in Samui in terms of more dry and less cloudy?

Thank you!!

Jackie

Hi Jackie,

Thanks for dropping by. July/August is usually a nice month, the more you go towards August, the likelier sunshine will be, although, as you mentioned, an occasional tropical shower may pass by. In general, late July and August typically should have enough sunshine to keep everyone happy.
In my opinion May or August will be your best options and I can also give you this advice, in case you haven't done and checked this yet;
