Based on previous years experience, games will most likely be played at multiple locations.  The University stadium (intersection of hwy 22 and 223) has been designated for the main events: ceremonies and championship game.  Spectator seating is 'on the grassy knoll.' Available bleachers will most likely be occupied by university students.  If bleacher seating is available to you, bring sunscreen and visors. Shaded and catered seating is available to dignitaries surrounded by heavy security Someone nudged me and pointed to the book which had been laying on my front porch for eons.  Judging by the size of that playbook... maybe that's the reason information is so slow in coming

Most of the provinces experiencing drought are in the Isan area. Local crop failures due to drought conditions have been in the news recently. Government agencies are hurriedly digging wells, most likely for human consumption, rather than for agriculture. A few days of rain are in the forecast for later in the coming week. From the looks of it, too little to call an end to the drought.    Humidity Rising In the immediate future, hot daytime temperatures with a noticeable increase in humidity at night."Relative Humidity."  It rises with the sun during the day and is therefore less noticeable. The absence of the sun at night increases the relative humidity near the ground.   High humidity is detrimental to your health High humid conditions do not allow the body to cool itself through evaporation of sweat.
