i picked up on the Thai local news that there was an accident during the storm last night in which some students from Udon Pit school were electrocuted .. hence the power outage in and around the city circa 4 5 pm last night which caused the traffic chaos. Maybe Parrot can find the report on social media i just caught enough to hear 5 students were involved.

Over the years seen a few scary electrical shows due to rain and storms .. worst being at the Honda Big wing intersection about 6 years ago where a thick cable was waving about n sparks were flying ..

Nice today today on Udons costa del Nadee west side .. more heavy rain due later and through next week thou.

Hold on. Isn't there a thread somewhere on here praising the light company to the high heavens?

Yes you are correct, but so often as is the way with many infrastructure suppliers, there are somethings that are not perfect, one could take heart that even throughout all the rain that fell the Electricity continued to be supplied ,

These things can pass north or south or bullseye.......the result is hard to predict by the time the storm reaches Thailand. Probably safe to say 'lots of rain' for wherever it hits

The upside is I probably won't need AirAsia and I'll be able to take the submarine up to the Dom Udom 7-eleven at least.
