Watching the weather
A lot of people here in Bangkok and the rest of Thailand have learned that when they hear thunder or see lightning, they can check to see exactly where it is raining from their computer or smartphones.
First they go to the Thai Meteorological Department’s website http://www.tmd.go.th/en/index.php and they click on weather radar and choose a location. For many of us, that is usually Bangkok. This morning we watched as a big rain storm covered most of the city.
Now it is about 4pm. If you look outside you might see it is getting dark again. Here’s why. There is a second storm approaching us very quickly.
