Thick haze at dawn in Bangkok with record high dew point at 29 C and daily low of 31 C dry bulb. Must check whether this breaks 60 year records for discomfort extending into the insufferable for the rest of the day. Yesterday 5/12 was the record Thailand aircon power consumption mid afternoon about 2 pm, brownouts abounding, and in the Gulf of Thailand water temps exceeded records at 32 C. In Bangkok many people fanning themselves on the sidewalk. We could be heading into a day of extreme discomfort. Or do the 8 am cloud masses show here signal a merciful break point?Thursday, May 12, 2016
