Sakon Nakhon Pre-Season Football

No mosquito killing temperatures, but cool

Jan 13 Jan 14

Judging by the flags at yesterday's football game, we were getting light breezes from the southeast. While the weather arriving from the northeast continues to be dominant. Not much change in night time temperatures.  A few degrees up, a few degrees down Warming trend at the end of the month going into February Downtown Smoke? Smog? Clouds? Hard to tell

Mosquitoes die off at temperatures of 10C/50F or below

This should be an I-Phone Commercial

Elephant eats I-phone.
I-phone is recovered in elephant dung.
NO PROBLEM. Phone still works

Did you notice...

...this year's cold season is less humid 

than the  previous four years

Some weather sites confirm my finding.

Flu thrives in low humidity

When I had the flu as a youngster, my mother made steaming chamomile tea and had me inhale the steam with a towel covering my head and the steaming bowl.
Not only did it open my sinus, the high humidity also killed many of the virus bugs

Flu Season

I'm very susceptible to flu, I can catch it from people just mentioning it.
The US is experiencing one of it's worst flue season in recorded history.
I heard it on the news, now I have the flu.

Some interesting statistics about the flu virus:
You can carry the flu virus up to five days before you realize any symptoms.
Flu virus can survive outside the body from a few minutes to 48 hours or more.
Think about that next time you push a shopping cart at the grocery store.

Internet TV

Had previously mentioned poor video streaming over the internet.
I noticed the problem at my home.
Using my computer at other locations I noticed uninterrupted video streaming.

Calling our internet provider, the clerk answering the phone, suggested that we UPGRADE.
I considered it, then decided against it.  I'm paying for a service which I was not receiving.

Lo and behold, since calling the service provider,
my internet service was restored and I am enjoying  television on the net.

If your video streaming is frequently interrupted,

consult your internet provider,

Insure you are getting the service you are paying for
