October is always a month of transition from the south west to the north east monsoon and this year was no exception. So there have been days with wind from the north east as well as days from with wind from the south west. As it often happens, but not so much in October, we had at least three, maybe even four days with the early afternoon wind that develops around noon and is coming from the north northwest. We had another one or two or three days with wind from the northwest to west northwest direction. But days with speed or wind speeds exceeding twelve to fourteen knots were pretty rare. Still, they happened and the count for these days as of October twenty seven stands at five.

 

I was not at the beach every day, so mostly I take my knowledge about what happened on the beach wind wise from the well known information websites for measuring wind speed or forecasting wind speeds and directions. This is mostly valid for the eastern part of the Bay of Bangkok.

 

Other people videos, e.g. on facebook, are a good source also.
