Any time now


No raindrops yet. That weather system has slowed down considerably and seems to be staying north of the city. Forecasters have just been pushing the heavy rain forward from Thursday to Friday to Saturday, as if to say "any time now." I'm spending my time redesigning the calendar. ☞ in the sidebar"Upcoming Events" They are numbered pages with some videos and pictures. I'll add links and updated information as it becomes available. This project will take a few days, hoping to add at least 3 events per day till I'm caught up

VOTING IN 2018 U.S. ELECTIONS

Your vote counts! Did you know that many U.S. elections for house and senate seats have been decided by a margin smaller than the number of ballots cast by absentee voters? All states are required to count every absentee ballot as long as it is valid and reaches local election officials by the absentee ballot receipt deadline.

I'm guessing plenty rain Friday,
Occasional sun breaks a possibility

It's that tail end behind Bebinca that's coming our way. As this system seems to be crawling along, expect it to linger past the weekend

Water level down

I had used the steps in previous years to observe the height of the water level of Nong Hahn.
These days that's not possible due to the parked tour boats.
This newly rebuilt (blue pipe) water station used by municipal water trucks indicates the water level seems to be down by slightly over a foot

Raincoat and sunscreen

Wednesday
Tropical Storm Bebinca has slowed down considerably and is expected to move northwest along the mountain range once it hits land. Locally scattered rain, some light, some thunderstorm
Wonder how long the video will survive

Rainy season ho-hum


It rained almost continuously all last night, mostly light to medium. Expect light rain locally, heavy rain northern part of the province. System is moving ←east to west and should bypass the city, unless of course it decides to take a sharp left Keep in mind all that heavy rain to the north will eventually drain south. The next system may take a somewhat southwest direction.
