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

The weather is getting very unpredictable everywhere. Four seasons in a day (well, two in Thailand) is becoming very common!

According to ThaiMet we had 34mm of rain in Hua Hin( or rather at the weather station in Soi 51/53).

This was only one third of the average for August so we are still well behind for the calendar year overall.

Come on, chaps, the weather in Hua hin is generally predictable and hasn’t changed in any material way for centuries.

How about come on 2/cb?

This thread is clearly not for you. Leave it to us weather anoraks!

If weather in HH is so predictable then why are we over 40% down on average rainfall after 8 months this year?

We're having a dry year so far anyway. That clearly doesn't interest you but it does others

Thanks

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.

Typhoon Yagi

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.

.....New storm warning

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.
