Upper Thailand to get colder, more rain forecast for South
Cool-to-cold weather and strong winds are likely over upper Thailand, with a 2-4°C drop in temperature in the North and the Northeast and 1-3°C drop in the Central region, the East, Bangkok and its vicinity as a moderate high pressure system from China and Vietnam extends to cover upper Thailand by Thursday night, the Meteorological Department said.
Meanwhile, the northeast monsoon prevailing over the Gulf and the South is strengthening, resulting in more rain in the South, it added.
