You should be good to go now. Line of thunderstorms has passed and the sun is coming out. Better get your walk in quick though. With all that moisture on the ground and the sun coming out it's going to make the humidity levels unbearable in an hour or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worry this trip is the high humidity/dampness equating to high incidence of mosquitos. I have had more problems with mosquito bites this trip than I have had for a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made it to my ginger lady and ordered some for tomorrow then, purely relying on your weather forecast, made it up to Friendship for Strawberry juice..... 90 minute walk! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the sun never materialized in full force so humidity levels remained at high rather than unbearable levels. My early warning system (my adopted soi dog that is scared of thunderboomers and hears the low freq rumble before I do and barks) is telling me there are thunderboomers in the area. Whether they make it to central Pattaya remains to be seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We Yanks call them by their brand name Speedos, and with my Covid gut it would be embarrassing to put one on now, even in the privacy of my home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
