    Very helpful, thank you. Just to add this: There are two kinds of monsoon seasons. There is also around October or later until December a monsoon coming from the north-east directions that can hit especially the southern gulf islands pretty hard. It usually comes with strong winds and sometimes hard rain. But it´s usually the wind that leads all the fishermen and others to keep their boats in a safe storm harbour.

    Yeah, even in Winter in ChiangMai temp lowers down to 14 degree some time, maybe 3 times for 2 days, Even as a German I say it is cold - but I still don't wear a winter jacked like the locals here, but still bare foot. - Yeah, OLD climate In formations and as I have seen myself, the most rain was September and October, but since 8 years the seasons change as: The rain, normal stopped hard 1.11. about, now continue with every 10-12 days shower until January, the rain Monsun is coming more early (sure a month) and for years I haven't seen the Ping River full or flooding, as it happened 2006-1011 every year once. - Right 3 seasons: summer hot until 45 degrees, rain until 35 and later less, and winter most near 20, but sometime less - not so cold as it was years before. - So have fun and just prepare right with clothing and destinations.

      For lay on beach could be risky if rain, but just to go for it - not a problem if not thunder and storm.
      Example : Hua Hin, October most 14 day rain, but sure less to the end less, and there is a difference from East and West coast during the seasons.
      search Internet for Location, weather October - to get some basic data.
      I live in the North where the rain stops around 1.11. and the more south the later, but that is NOT this long term Monsun rain already. At Penang near to Malaysia the rain season near never stop.

    I recently moved to Chaing Rai from Bangkok. It's impossible to characterize the weather for all of Thailand. We've had a few days of hard rain and unlike Bangkok floods the total amount of rain (in the North) is still too low to refill all the rivers, lakes and reservoirs. This year's rain was just enough to irrigate rice fields now being harvested. The next season of crops are a gamble.
