Koh Samui, Thailand weekly
weather update; 12th November – 18th November 2018
Sunday afternoon and here we go again with the Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 12th November – 18th November 2018.
Long Sunday very early morning run done in Surat Thani and back on Koh Samui again. Time for a wedding celebrant job later this afternoon.
It's almost 14.00 and it's 29C with a partially cloudy sky. Sometimes there's sunshine and occasionally a short shower floats over. Some parts of the island are dry, whilst other parts are getting showered on. Life on Koh Samui during November and we're blessed so far with this month, since it can be a lot worse.
Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 12th November – 18th November 2018; Laem Sor temple, the boat on the hill! Construction is going on at the same temple grounds for a new building. And yes, this is how Samui's sky sometimes looked last week! Mostly during the mornings.
Last week was a real mixed bag around Koh Samui. We had sunny mornings and we had rainy afternoons. Nothing too bad though, no major floods except for some flash floods. These flash floods clear as soon as the rain stops, within an hour or faster.
Maximum temperatures ranged from 31C to 24C being the lowest recorded temperature last week.
Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 12th November – 18th November 2018; View from the Don Sak chedi. You can spot the chedi on top of a mountain when you arrive on a ferry, coming from Koh Samui at Don Sak port. This is also how Samui's sky looked like plenty of times, last week. Mostly during the afternoons. The next days and weeks I will be coming through Don Sak, on my way to or coming from Surat Thani. At least each weekend for the next 3-4 weekends. Also including visits to Khao Lak and Phuket. Lots of travelling and work ahead.
The forecast for next week looks very similar. Except for Tuesday and Wednesday when a storm is passing over parts of South Thailand. Koh Samui will be on the fringes of this storm and expect some rain and increased wind.
All in all it still looks very nice for a Koh Samui November. Enjoy the breaks! Hopefully we get away with an easy rainy season this year.
Famous last words!
Please do 'like' my Koh Samui blog Facebook page and enjoy the beaches around the island or in front of your hotel or resort and get some well deserved rest and a break.
If you're done resting or need something else to do, there's plenty of things on offer on and around Koh Samui, you can go snorkeling or diving or take a dive course.
You can also enjoy some of the trips I recommend, like a half day gourmet lunch and snorkeling trip at the Southern part of Koh Samui or a photography trip where you get to see the most photo genetic spots on the island or go for a drinks tasting tour if you like a tipple or two.
You may also opt for a very special dinner experience at The Thai Experience. Behind closed doors, reservation only and a very enjoyable and well worthwhile way of spending an evening on Samui. Authentic Thai food and a great atmosphere. Can highly recommend this experience.
Contact me for more detailed information on any of the options mentioned.
