TMD Thailand Meteorological Department recorded an overnight cold temperature of  21.5.  My thermometers said 17 Celsius 62.6 Fahrenheit  at 4 am.   
Daytime temperatures still a bit warm today and Saturday. The cooling trend will become very obvious on Sunday.   
I wouldn't be at all surprised if some of the locals dress up as if they are experiencing a siberian winter

It's a northeast Thailand football competition generally held in November each year. For obvious reasons it has been postponed this year.  I should be getting the game schedule from the printer shortly.   
Noteworthy is the coach of the Sakon City team is a former Sakon FC team captain during that team's best year (2010). 
Sakon Nakhon Province will be represented by two teams, the Sakon Nakhon (city) team and the Sawan Daen Ding team.   
Don't miss the opening ceremonies to the games

Buffet Thursday, Football Friday


Thursday at Chilly's


Thailand vs Indonesia football on Nov 22 was almost boring at times.  As if everyone was playing to avoid all penalties.  Of course boredom ended toward the end of the game when a substitute player for Thailand entered and scored.  Of the four teams in group A, Thailand had the only wins.  All other games ended with draws

Cooling Temperatures lower humidity
The difference between actual temperatures  and feels like temperatures will hardly be noticeable.  Maybe a one or two degree difference during the day.  Humidity increases at night, but with cooler nighttime temperatures won't be noticed all that much

I was there

 
I arrived at Idlewild airport on Friday, June 13, 1958 and continued my travels to Anchorage on the same day
Down the street from the Apartment we stayed at temporarily, they made a huge pile of lumber and anything burnable. Furniture, doors, you name it, donations kept on piling up
Alaska celebrated statehood at the end of that month.  I was there

Speed Test

Did the speed tests at 5:05 pm with a minute between tests while I changed providers. 
From about 4 pm to 7 pm services tend to get bogged down.  The lowest priced service had the best download speeds. 
I used an HTML5 test purported to be the most accurate. All tests were conducted with WIFI connection
