Cool spell ends
After the recent wind storms local temperatures had been quite cool and pleasant for the last few days.
Expect that to change with temperatures climbing back the low forties probably by mid week or the weekend
(High yesterday 26, today 32 to 34).
Weather is arriving from the west, where there seems to be nothing but clear skies and partly cloudy.
Temperatures approaching Songkran may well be in the low to mid thirties, but its too far in the future to state with any certainty.
Past experience, there has been at least one of the Songkran holidays with clouds and some rain.
Repairs to storm damage at my house have been concluded at a cost of nearly 10,000 baht.
A tree did fall on the second house without damage, just a big mess to clean up. No sunflowers survived the windstorm.

Waiting for the cleaning crew to arrive
Thai Meteorological Department reports local winds were 11.1 km
I'd estimate some of the wind guts near 40 km (25 mph).
Recorded rain 16.6 mm (0.65 inch), not enough to end the drought conditions

Rain maybe
With increased temperatures and accompanying high humidity, some scattered showers are likely for the next three to four days. I'm not getting my hopes up just yet
Food, Drinks, and Entertainment ALL FREE
That all changed in an instant when I was asked to provide a ride to the municipal grounds.
We watched a bit of the Muay Thai at one end of the grounds.
Eventually heading over to the entertainment, free food and beer
The surprise was in my sink the next morning:
Large water bottles filled with free beer.
Yes I had a slight 'Hang' over
