Floods in Hua Hin and gulf coast area
Just picked up the BBK Post. Apparently the area has been badly affected by high wins and 4m high waves which have caused flooding and damage to some homes (500) and shops etc. Govt has declared a disater area in 6 regions. Boats instructed to remain in port.
Anyone travelling to the area may want to check on the current situation.

It has calmed down a lot but the waves are still rough. Not much beachhead but as Carol has mentioned it should be better as the week progress.
Kathie I'm not there yet and only my parents and some relatives are there now.

The town is not flooded Kathie only the very rough seas and high waves causing flooding along the beachheads. I think it's the result of some offshore storm and by the new year it should be fine - fingers crossed!
