Northeast Monsoon
The climatic conditions are conducive for the commencement of the northeast monsoon rainy season on Wednesday (today, 28th October). Due to the stormy conditions prevailing in the Pacific Ocean, the speed of the northeast monsoon winds is somewhat lesser. This wind is drifting towards Thailand. Due to this, the northeast monsoon winds have been rendered weaker. As such, the climatic conditions are conducive even with the weaker winds for the onset of the northeast monsoon rainy season.”
