Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 18th May, 2016

Today's weather;

It's fairly cloudy over Koh Samui this morning and it looks like most of the day will remain like this. Current temp at 7am is 28C but it already feels like 34C!

Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 18th May, 2016

Fishing boat moored at the Seatran pier in Bang Rak

Yesterday saw a mostly cloudy sky over Koh Samui all day and it looked like it rained in the Western part of the island, when I arrived by ferry, there were wet roads and puddles on the road on that part of the island. Max temp reached the by now almost routine 34C.

The forecast did change, big time this time around. It will remain like today for the next three days, including today. As from Saturday storm like wind is supposed to hit Koh Samui with ehavy cloud layers and plenty of rin.
The heatwave is playing it's last hand over the next coming days and a different weather pattern will show up.

Hi Camille--

Thanks for writing this blog! Very helpful. I'm planning to arrive in Koh Samui next Monday evening (5/23) until Saturday. The weather is looking very cloudy/rainy - based on your experience in KS, do you expect these to be spotty showers with sunshine in-between... or all-day rain showers? Wasn't sure what the typical weather was like this time of year.

Please do let me know - thank you!

Hi Jenna,

We had unusual good weather for Mau, up til now. As of this weekend a weather front with lots of strong wind, heavy clouds and a few showers is moving in, which is not un typical for May.

May can have some rain, my advice is please have a look at my archives, half way 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.

Hope this helps for now.
