That's pretty much what I saw in 1966
Bangkok population 1960 1 1/2 million
Bangkok population today over 8 million
Now is a good time to do maintenance on fans and air conditioners
Locally we experienced some above average temperatures through May and most of June. Some were higher than anything experienced in the last decade.
The last three days were a pleasant respite from the heat. That is about to come to an end.
Temperatures rising
Slow at first, by the start of the new week rising temperatures will become noticeable. Mid thirties celsius, mid nineties fahrenheit.
The feels like temperature should be topping off in the upper thirties celsius, slightly over 100 fahrenheit. (39 degrees Celsius = 312.15 degrees Kelvin)
Things may begin cooling down during the second week of July, but that's too far ahead to predict with any certainty

Yeah well I'm still 90% accurate
Obviously I should have stuck with my earlier prediction of some tentacles of the storm reaching this area. "A drop in the bucket of what we really need."
I was swayed by the fact that the majority of forecasters predicted heavy storms.
The only part of the forecast which held true: cooler temperatures for a few days. Cooler temperatures meant airconditioners could take a rest, a savings of money I can spend elsewhere.
