    1. Yagi was devastating as well and we are still feeling the effects, interesting that its STILL this bad.

    2. Wow – that is horrendous…oops sorry, gotta run – Hurricane Helene killed a coupla hundred of (more important) Americans…

      That’s crazy. Nothing anyone can do. Nature just put their entire life on hold. You just have to cope.

      I wonder if they can fish in the streets or if they have to worry about sharks outside their front door?

      My heart goes out to you. That’s terrible news. We have to adapt we have no choice. Thailand has a lot going for it and a new canal planned but that takes time to build. Lots of people are in the same situation and really people have to be forward thinking and move to higher ground expect flooding. Don’t wait until you are stranded or under water. Don’t try to farm on a river’s edge if it has a history of flooding. Use irrigation.

    5. Is it the water from yagi thats causing the chiang mai floods were finally drying out here in mae sai from yagis rains.

      There’s probably a single plastic bag covering the drain on the street. Find the bag, clear the drain, be a hero!

      Were there rivers what changed course? I can’t imagine why you would still be flooded after a month. Is your village to lowest topographical area around?

      Fields near my house are still flooded after a dum in Kyiv reservoir was blown at February 2022 (start of full-scale war), rivers are still overflowed.
      Situation where Kakhovska dum was blown in June 6, 2023 is way worse. Whole reservoir is empty, but luckily billions of trees grown there

    9. And German politicians are discussing if the ban of combustion engines (from 2035) should be canceled. Thanks for nothing.

      Your street has been flooded waist deep for an entire damn month?!Am I reading that correctly?.Why have the waters not receded already?

    11. I’m so sad. I’m sorry to hear that.

      800+ dead. That’s tragic.

      I can’t believe it. All your crops and plants are done for this year.

      I’m sorry.
