Upper Thailand gets warmer today, less rain in the South
A low heat system is presently covering the lower North and the upper Central region while southeasterly and southerly winds prevail over the lower Northeast, the Central and East regions, leading to a 1-3°C rise in temperatures in upper Thailand, but mountaintops will continue to experience cold to very cold weather, the Meteorological Department said on Wednesday.
It also mentioned that the easterly wind across the Gulf of Thailand will bring less rain in the South, and added that from February 25-26, a high-altitude westerly wind will bring cool air from Myanmar to the North of Thailand. Temperatures in this region will decrease by 1-3°C.
