Six districts in Phetchaburi declared flood disaster zones

Phetchaburi - Phetchaburi Governor Chai Phanitpornphan Monday declared six districts in the province flood disaster zones following torrential rains.

The six districts are Kaen Krachan, Thayang, Ban Lard, Khao Yoi, Muang and Ban Laem.

The torrential rains caused the water level in the reservoir of Phetchaburi Dam was too high so the officials had to release the water, resulting in flash flooding.

Most parts of Phetchaburi downtown were also inundated and the inbound Phetkasem Road in Khao Yoi district was under 20-centimetre-high water.

Thanks Pete will keep an eye on that. I hear there's been some flooding in the HH area too. Is there a decent all Thailand weather site you use?

Sometimes decent but sometimes not updated. Here is the one page for Hua Hin and you can type in many other Thai locations and most have their own station(s). http://www.wunderground.com/global/stations/48475.html

Here is the official Thai website as well. This site has been showing false-positives in the past for virus. I confirmed not long ago with Intego that they were indeed false-positives and no virus existed. http://www.tmd.go.th/en/ Pete
