Sakon Nakhon FC getting better

Back in 2010, the team's apparent best year, the team ended in 8th place of 16.
This year the team has reached the 8th place of 14. Next two games are home games.
The next game is  with Mukdahan Lamkhong (May 7). which has not won any games this season.
The following Wednesday Sakon FC hosts Amnat Poly United.  APU is in second place in the league, so that one will be a challenge to watch.

Temperatures remain High Rainy season begins Mid May



Even though the main weather system seems to be moving west to east, recent rains, there've been a few, have all come from the northeast. 
An indication that the weather patterns are beginning to shift.
Temperatures will remain high through the middle of May.  Occasional scattered  thunderstorms.


The nation should get some relief from the sweltering weather next month as the rainy season begins, the Meteorological Department says.
