Tropical Sun

.
The Northern Hemisphere moves closer to its solstice. We are still north of the Equator here, yet at 14-degrees N. latitude the Sun is north of us at noon. That always amazes me.

A Cool Break

.
We had a mercifully cool break yesterday and last night as thunderstorms passed through. Clouds blocking out the blazing sun make a big difference, and the strong breezes are refreshing. This hot spell that we have been experiencing for so long is now said to be extreme even for Thailand’s Hot Season norm. So it wasn’t just my imagination after all.
