Are there any flooding dangers in Sakon Nakhon
With headline such as ...Bangkok sinking..., many people are talking about the effects of global warming and are wondering how it would affect the local region.
At an elevation 161 meters (529 feet), Sakon Nakhon is not threatened by the rise of ocean levels, unlike Bangkok at a six meter (19.69 feet) altitude.
Flooding from the Mekon River into this area is possible in extreme circumstances. Nakhon Phanom, along the shores of the Mekon, is at an altitude of 179 meters (586 feet).
Local flooding is more often caused by extreme tropical rains.
The most recent flooding which receded within three days was in August 2008.
A minor inconvenience to traffic, with a sewer stench in some parts of the city, most locals used the opportunity and went fishing.

Nok Air increases Sakon Nakhon service
The Sakon Nakhon route has been updated past February.
Three flights per week during February.
Five flights per week during March.
Daily service begins at the end of March and continues through the end of July.
NOK Air is in urgent need of a ground attendant, according to a posting dated February 3.
Female or male, not over 25 years old, excellent communication skills – both Thai and English, local dialect especially (Northern East) is advantageous.

Happy 70th Mister Bob
All those candles are gonna look like a forest fire.
Received some photo's from Germany, where it's cold. Brrrr.
I don't miss that kind of weather at all.
East coast of the USA is having similar weather.
Florida corals are dying due to cold. Parts of California had heavy rain, flooding and landslides.
Like I said, I don't miss that kind of weather at all. I used to feel the cold weather in my joints.
The winter Olympics (Canada) start in nine days.
Locally, chance of rain this weekend.
Yes I'm still receiving a large number of jokes daily. appreciate them all. If you are wondering why yours has not been added to Funny Mail (see right sidebar), I am adding five per day, and keeping the rest for days when I don't get contributions.
Extended my visa yesterday. No problem. Was in and out of the office in less than ten minutes.
The actual renewal date is this coming Sunday.
Actually I didn't fall....
...the mosquitoes turned me over to get to the white meat
"Bob Hope in Korat 1966"
An extensive collection of Bob Hope's Christmas Specials, visiting the troops in Asia, was recently made available at You Tube. The collection of Videos is well worth watching.
