Glad you've clarified that. For a moment I thought you were living in a rowing boat on the Mekhong.

If I had a rowing boat on the Mekhong I probably would be as rich ad Joe Ferarri by doing the nightly drugs transfers

Electric's on.

As posted above, 'Little rain, here in Isan, since Wed night and not all that much on my online forecast neither.'

BTW I could have sworn 60 km north of Udon was better known as Nong Khai.

What words would you have used .?

He could go out if you got yer act together and bought him some wellingtons.

I spoke too soon. It's p*ssing down.

But at least the electricity's still on so I can re-charge the phone .

Rain stopped about 5 minutes ago.

It'll be back; it's like being back in blighty in the summertime.

A good portion of our province is under water. 

The first and second wave - and more to come. 

Just another day in paradise.

South Phetchabun, a river running down Soi 2.

The boats out now evacuating the old folk from flooded houses. We are 2km west of River Pa Sak, I would say the banks have broken.

Have they broken or just been overflowed?

[MrStretch]

Not entirely sure, I can not get down to look. They widened many kms of that river some years back now, but this is the worse storm in recent rainy seasons. That small river running past my house for several hours now. All my neighbours houses are flooded, the Thai builder who did our place told us to build high because of the river. I've been here over 15 years now, incidentally most of the town (Phu Toei) is under water.

 "the central Vietnamese province of Quang." There is no such province in Vietnam. Perhaps you mean Quang Nam or Quang Ngai? Why do you not check articles before just copying them? Or provide a disclaimer saying "This article is just a direct copy and we have not reviewed it for accuracy."

Raining in Loei for the last three weeks, off and on - sometimes heavy, sometimes a drizzle.

Mushrooming's good but cycling's out, so's painting, and the lawn was cut just in time.

Electricity's out too, for the last few hours, so I'm  down to commenting here - why should I be the only one to suffer ...

A beautiful early evening here, now. Looks like we've escaped the storms again but I hope I don't live to regret those optimistic noises.

Wow.

Fortunately we live up in the hills so if it rains here it's still like Mt Ararat, but I've never known so much steady dreary drizzle for so long as the last few weeks - mixed with the occasional storm for good measure.

Good for the rice crop, as long as it survives, but little else.

Sorry for the tourists
