Cold weather sets in over most of Thailand

Despite arriving late, cold weather has started to hit northern provinces.

"The Meteorological Department warned that an intense high pressure ridge had extended to cover upper Thailand. Cold weather and winds are expected in the North, Northeast, Central and East regions until Wednesday.

Sixteen districts and two sub-districts of Chiang Rai and some districts in Chiang Mai have been declared as disaster areas after a third day of temperatures below 15 degrees centigrade.

In upland areas such as Mae Sai, Mae Chan, Phan, Thoeng, Wiang Pa Pao, Mae Fa Luang and Wiang Kaen, temperatures below 5 degrees have been recorded at night. . .

Frost has occurred on Doi Inthanon, the country's highest peak, where the temperature has been under 5C. Frost is regarded as a phenomenon by people living in the sub-tropical lowlands."

The weather here in Pattaya has been heavenly.

It's cool at night and in the mornings, the rain is gone and the breezes off the ocean are cool and refreshing even during the hot part of the afternoon.

You can't ask for better weather than this.
