No Thai League Representation in Sakon Nakhon Province

The question pops up occasionally. 
 
Sakon Nakhon FC was relegated to amateur status in mid 2023.  A decision was made to not pursue the team any further, most likely due to financial restraints.

A local team would have to start at amateur status for the first year in hopes of advancing the following year.  The financial requirements, even for an amateur league are phenomenal.

I attended Sakon FC games since its inception in 2005, in fact had the privilege to be team photographer for two seasons.  What I miss most is the travel to attend away games

Football, known in the US as soccer is alive in local teams and events.  Until recently I sponsored local football for over a decade.  Gave me a purpose to participate in the local community.
There are a number of football fields throughout the area.  The most popular these days is WEHUG.  Counted five football fields within the city. Most villages have their own fields

Cool Temperatures postponed

We had a few cool days and hopes were running high for a cool season ahead. Unfortunately the immediate forecast continues with increased huidity, which will feel like it's hotter. 
 
Next cool spell is anticipated in early November
Variables in temperature forecasts most likely are due to location within the province

Storm Heading to our front door

Of the 10 different weather services I monitor, most seem to have varied forecasts. 

While some indicate the heavy rains will reach us over the weekend, YR and Wunderground are forecasting the heavy rain will be Thursday through Friday.

Even the path of the storm differs to some degree.  Just in Case they are right, I'm preparing for a direct hit as forecast by ventusky


At the moment its considered a tropical depression. It could increase in intensity as it moves over water. It is expected to diminish once it enters Vietnam
