It's getting frosty in the North

Visitors to the North have been warned to wrap up well, as temperatures dropped to five degrees Celsius on many mountaintops including Chiang Mai's Doi Inthanon and winter's first frost spotted at Doi Angkhang.

Published on November 27, 2007



Northern weather forecaster Pornnapa Thongthep said a high pressure system from China had extended its ridge to over Thailand, causing gusty rainfall in some places and cold weather with morning fog throughout the North. The temperature would continue to drop another 1-2 degrees for the next three to four days.

The minimum temperature was 13C and the maximum 15C, she said. However, it was cold in the mountains with a minimum of six to 10C, especially at the top of Doi Inthanon, where it was 5C yesterday morning. She urged visitors to closely follow weather reports and wear warm clothes.

The top of Doi Angkhang in Fang district was also 5C and saw the first morning frost covering the field inside the Royal Project agriculture station.
