The south of Thailand can prepare for more rain this week due to a Northeast monsoon. In the north of Thailand it gets cold and the temperature can drop to 3-5 degrees Celsius.

Yesterday it rained heavily in Surat Thani province, causing flooding in Muang district and roads that became impassable.

The north, northeast and central region will experience a cold front. This is announced by changeable weather with rain and gusts of wind. After that, the temperature will drop to 3-5 degrees Celsius at night.

Residents in these areas should prepare for the bad weather. Farmers should protect their crops and fishermen should not go out to sea because of the high waves and strong winds.

    “…After that the temperature will drop to 3-5 degrees Celsius….”

    Don't scare us now! You mean the NIGHT temperature and I've known no different here in the northeast for 15 years. During the day a pleasant 20 to 25 degrees. what more do we want? Extra blanket and possibly the oil or air convector in the evening. In the Netherlands they already scratch the car windows in the morning…..

      Yes, of course the night temperature.

    I'm glad that the temperature in my hometown never drops below 20 degrees, even at night! That rain? Oh well, in practice it's not too bad, even now that the rainy season is underway.

    But 3 to 5 degrees is extremely cold for this time of year. I have lived in Chiangdao for 12 years. In the north of Chiangmai. In the mountains and is known in Thailand for its "cold" Wherever I go, the Thais ask for cold there. But it rarely gets to 3 to 5 degrees. And the Isaan is flat so it should freeze here. Still have to see it. They still predict rain here. Last night I still had the air conditioning on.

    Last year in Chiangrai we had a temperature of 6 to 7°C in January in the village and rain every day. Even though we have temperatures in Europe that go far below 0, what many people like to forget is the fact that hardly any house in Thailand has heating. After a few days of rain and cold, everything indoors is also cold and clammy. The mentioned temperatures of 6 to 7°C were not night, but day temperatures, so that you would like to go to bed at 20.00 p.m. in the evening. In Europe, a temperature of -15°C is not that bad as long as you usually have the option to warm yourself with central heating. You will miss this last option in Thailand during a cold front, so strange it sounds.

    Hello everyone, we are going to Koh Lanta and Krabi in two weeks, any idea what the weather forecast is then?

      Apart from the fact that the weather in a period that will only start in two weeks is hardly predictable, you could also take a look yourself. See for example https://www.worldweatheronline.com/krabi-weather/krabi/th.aspx
