Seems a bit early in the season for such overnight low temperatures

Overnight lows may warm up for just a few days.  

Then Thursday - Friday Accuweather calls for overnight temperatures to cool to 13C.  Wunderground forecasts 9C. Weather channel suggests 12C. YR indicates 12C on Saturday.

Neighbor doors banging, occasional high wind gusts

That's usually an indication of changing weather conditions 

Cold coming our way

The cold air seems to be coming from Northeast

Of the number of forecast I check 14 Celsius may be the lowest overnight temperature this week.  Keep in mind crawling and flying insects will also be looking for warmer accomodations and may want to follow you insideสกลนคร Sakon Nakhon

Worldwide rainfall is increasing

largely due to global warming, which increases evaporation and adds more moisture to the atmosphere, creating the conditions for more extreme precipitation.

Hotel construction continues on ITU

Meanwhile a house which has been stting empty since the music bar moved out is now another coffee shop. 

Business seems to be picking up. Once the hotel is in operation, the neighborhood may experience a bigger push in tourism

The six month pilot program is in response to an outcry  of citizen and business complaints.  

It is generally hoped that the changed regulation will be helpful in the tourism industry

Been making Yoghurt for the past month

Three portions per every five cups of milk.  About half of that is waste (acid whey, a yellowish, watery liquid). 

The more you drain, the more solid the yogurt will be. I've gotten up to cream cheese consictency

Experiencing seasonal sore throat, I've been spicing the yoghurt with honey.

Warm the milk. Add a spoon of yogurt, keep it warm overnight

in the morning, drain amd package

As expensive as Brie cheese is, I'm reading up about cheese making

Three portions per every five cups of milk.

Chonburi outperformed Buriram First loss of the season for Buriram

 

Great game for Chonburi even after losing a player due to a red card. 

Chonburi with only a second win in the season, five draws and four loses.

The game was definitely a big surprise

Opinion: "cons" outweigh the "pros"

under tough new alcohol law | livemint.com

 

Opinion:"cons" outweigh the "pros" 

1️⃣ on my mind is the large number of vehicle accidents and injuries related to alcohol. Cancer also can have its beginnings with light alcoholic consumption according to recent reports floating around

2️⃣  The relationship of alcohol and tourism results in multi-billion TAX revenue 

3️⃣  The government cost of "universal coverage scheme," (free medical services) has increased tremendously since its enactment 

Of greater concern to Thai tourism is local competition, especially recently rediscovered Vietnam. Cambodia border tensions have eased but have not been settled. Recent scam center events are also a tourism detriment

Hotels and resorts with a license to sell booze any time most likely will benefit.

Bars and nightclubs most likely will have a "LAST CALL"
