There are those who feel the rainy season slows down in September, here's September 2014 memory. 
A few forecasters are calling for some heavier rainfall locally next week. Others are not.

My own observation: rain season tends to wind down as the rain retreat ends. The October full  moon is running late this year, October 24.

Relaxing atmosphere at the Sakon Nakhon Waterfront

 

Stopped off to check out the lake water level. It's down quite a bit compared to early August

It's quiet at the waterfront park, some boat maintenance
and some "Frühschoppen."
