Upper Thailand gets colder
The Thailand Meteorological Department said on Thursday (February 13) that the westerly trough is moving through the North to the Northeast and Laos while the high-pressure system across the Northeast and the South China Sea will remain weak.
The weather will be cool to cold in the North with a decrease in temperatures by 1-3°C. The Northeast has an increase in temperatures, morning fog, and possible isolated light rain while the Central and the East regions will see thundershowers in some areas.
