Does anyone know what's going on?  Eva Air BR68 from London has just landed at Utapao after a few loops and what looks like a couple of attempts at BKK.  Several other flights looping around too, including some low above Pattaya which is what attracted my interest.  Thunderstorms were in the forecast for today but currently the airport weather is reported as good.

Weather radar shows some strong thunderstorms had moved through the BKK area.

I think they may be about to arrive here.  It just got very dark and windy.

And the power went off now too.

Power just came back on. Dark clouds have moved on. So far no rain though.

They have mostly passed over here too ... heading for UTP!

Plenty of rain though !!

The heavy rain must be very localized. You're only about 1km from me and all we got was a few sprinkles, just enough to wet the pavement.

There will be a few departure delays, more than arrival delays. Just bad weather for a short duration. Landed at Swampy in August last year from Chiang Mai, after arrival the airport closed, the baggage wasn't even being collected as the staff could not do their duties due to the adverse weather. As I had a bus to catch, I left my baggage for pick up by Bangkok Air staff, picked it up 2 days later. Luckily I had hand luggage with clothes for 2 days. Bkk Airport 1832.png
