Tourists in Pattaya were very disappointed as their Sunday has become a wasted holiday while the rainfall wasn’t going to stop easily. The rain started at about noon on Sunday while families were getting ready to go to theme parks, beaches, and islands. Some of the boat trips were canceled due to high waves and warnings from the pier officials. The day turned dark the whole afternoon. Many who traveled from Bangkok had to pack their bags and leave the hotels early.
Traveling programs were canceled or luckily postponed to the next weekends while kids are having about a month school break. Those who came from other provinces to enjoy the sea, sand and sun this weekend had to endure with high level of flood water on Sukhumvit road on their way back home. Foreign residents who usually hang out at bars along the beaches kept on doing so and nothing else. Tourists on baht-buses had no other way to protect themselves and got all soaked during the rainfall. The thundershowers will likely stay above Pattaya and the eastern regions for a few more days and there should be less rains and temperature drop from mid-October.
