RAIN IN BANGKOK AS KETSANA PASSES BY
It's a wet and gloomy morning in Bangkok as the remnants of Typhoon Ketsana pass over the city.
There's been consistent, but not heavy, rain since around 8pm last night. The small canal in my soi (street) is high but not close to flooding, and my journey to the office this morning was uneventful. There was a noticeable wind in the city yesterday and this morning I'd estimate it is several degrees cooler than normal right now.
I've certainly seen far worse conditions in Bangkok, which is only to be expected from what is now just a tropical depression, and a fragmented one at that. However it's good to know that the Bangkok Metropolitan Authority was on standby and had prepared mobile units to deal with possible flooding in the Thai capital.
