Phuket weather from 20 to 23 September 2013
The weather during last few days has been affected by big events from the China Sea last the tropical storm USAGI that caused floods in China and Philippines. The storm affected central Thailand with heavy rain falls and rivers level raised to critical point.
In Phuket we saw heavy rain on Friday only then Saturday wind started blowing stronger with high waves, but sky went back to blue and clouds were passing fast.
Sunday was basically same as previous day and today we saw more dark clouds, again strong wind helped to keep sky clean so almost all day Sun was shining.
Swim from Phuket West coast it is very dangerous from may till October when the wind direction will change from North East, when at the beaches keep this in mind and follow the warnings.

Phuket weather 16 to 19 September 2013
This week is going opposite all statistics, September should be wet and raining but we had three beautiful days with flat sea and sunshine. Once again this prove that we can record a lot of data thinking that we then know everything about weather but Mother Nature does what she wants...as all women :-).
Today the situation changed a bit with wind and wind gusts, sea is rough and clouds alternate to blue sky. Forecast for tomorrow say more rain and probably strong wind because of tropical depression on South China Sea in last days of action will enter the Gulf of Thailand affecting weather for one or two days until will dissolve by Saturday or Sunday.
