Strange, I had exact opposite experience
As I've posted before when I was last in UK(Cheshire) 5 to 10 yrs ago, being a keen golfer I was always on the weather apps. I found them(mostly Met Office) to be very accurate
Although, as other posters have shown, is that even within a relatively small area of Hua Hin, the amount or rain varies considerably so it’s only a guide for the area.
Will any of it get here? Check the below link over the next 24 hours. To me at the moment it looks as if it has split into two storms, with the western part actually forming a small second eye for a short time.
The Meteorological Department on Tuesday warned that heavy rain is likely across the country, with strong winds and high tides along the Andaman coast and in the upper Gulf of Thailand until Friday.
The weather office said it was watching a low pressure system to the east of the Philippines that could gain strength and develop into a tropical storm before it makes landfall in northern Vietnam on Friday.
This could bring more heavy rain to much of Thailand......
I love impressive weather. We rarely see it in HH, and when we do it sadly means that deaths are occurring in The Andaman Sea and across other parts of Thailand. Living in a nice safe house I can take this view of heavy storms and typhoons. I feel for Thai people who are not so lucky.
The Meteorological Department has warned that a typhoon will strike Thailand on Friday, resulting in heavy rain, sudden floods and landslides, with the Northeast expected to bear the brunt............
