The Dry season runs from December to April. You can occasionally get unseasonal weather (March 2011), but it is generally dry.
Wait until March and April. Very hot, very humid and not much wind.
Roll on rainy season.

Could be an early start to the rainy season with La Nina.

Steve, do you prefer hot and wet, over hot and dry? I'll take the current 89ºF with 60% humidity over last nights 83º with 80% humidity.

Me too! Only previously been here in October. Can't believe how lovely & comfortable it is. Yet the water is still warm to swim.

In Chalong there have been some very light showers, during the night, since the beginning of the year but nothing for the last 3 weeks. I feel it is already starting to get more hot & sticky compared to the end of Dec early Jan when there were times I found it refreshingly cool.

Sorry, but not true. We have had quite a few nights with rain, not for the last 3-4 weeks though.

You just might, although we've been going down to Rawai Beach and sitting under the trees in the late afternnon. Shady, breezy and relaxing.

Just started pouring rain at my house in Rawai. I watered, so I knew it would rain. At least a little bit...

Edit; it was a short shower.
