My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Hey Buksida, I don't see this refreshing every 30 minutes - last update was 9 June 22:30.07.

Coincidentally, around the time you posted - did you break it? :D

Bloody chilly over here in Rayong with 23C at 1500 hours. Starting to feel like February again. Eat your heart out HHF. :laugh: Hua Hin still showing 28C at the moment. That's still cool for daytime temps anywhere here. Been raining since 1000 hours and I see it is in HH also. It looks like the entire east and near south is wet today. Pete :cheers:

Warning as floods menace 19 provinces
By THE NATION
Published on June 27, 2011


A nine-year-old Burmese girl suffered an electric shock while wading through floodwater in Tak's Mae Sot district yesterday.

She is being treated at the Mae Sot Hospital, as police investigate. They believe the electricity supply to the area had not yet been cut off when the Burmese girl reached the flooded spot.

Floods hit many areas of the province yesterday- while officials are still trying to find out more about the earthquake that hit Trang on Friday.

In Mae Ramat district, residents in two villages were evacuated in the face of rising floodwaters and more than 100 houses were inundated. The floods also ravaged a vast area of paddy fields but no casualties were reported.

The National Disaster Warning Centre also warned residents of Mae Hong Son, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Lamphun, Lampang, Phayao, Phrae, Nan, Uttaradit, Tak, Sukhothai, Phitsanulok, Phetchabun, Loei, Nong Bua Lamphu, Udon Thani and Nong Khai to beware of possible flash floods.

In Nan, floods had hit 48 villages as of press time.

Meanwhile, the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) is trying to determine the epicentre of Trang's first recorded earthquake in history.

"Since Thailand started recording earthquakes half a century ago, there had never been one in Trang before," Lertsin Raksasakunwong said yesterday in his capacity as head of the DMR Environmental Geology and Earthquake Department.

The tremor was felt in Trang's Hat Samran district late Friday night and Lertsin said it measured between 2.6 and 3.5 on the Richter scale.

Locals in Kan Tang district blamed the earthquake for cracks in their houses.

Lertsin said at this point, it remained unclear where was the epicentre of Friday's earthquakes.

"But we are trying to find out," he said, "The information will help us estimate quake risks in the future".

Of the 13 known active faults in Thailand, none has straddled Trang.

Hmm IRIS doesn't show any earthquakes in Thailand. Is there any other source for this info?

Given that Richter 3 is about what you feel when a bus drives past your house, cracking in structures doesn't seem particularly likely. Would be interested to see something 'solid' so to say.

You're right. I can't find it on any chart either, including the USGS worldwide listing by day and magnitude. Maybe it was gophers! :shock: Pete :cheers:

Probably just a cement truck going down the road. That feels like a 3 when they go down the street in front of my house.

↑ Here is a picture of this storm. It seems the biggest threat to Hua Hin and to me here in Rayong is the monsoon moisture it's sucking into it from the west. In Rayong they're predicting about 185mm of rain between today and next Tuesday. About 89mm for Hua Hin. Pete :cheers:

We went through this before about a year ago HHF. I never got any notice but BB did. I sent it into two separate virus companies and both came back saying they could find nothing and it was a false positive. Pete :cheers:
