I've tried to find out where the official weather monitoring equipment is located for Buriram Province, but no luck.

My wife has lived in Mueang Buriram her entire life, and she doesn't know either. 

Anyone know ? Mr Pichai ?

No idea here, but just guessing maybe at the Airport in Satuek ?

Coming from a hot Australian summer, this feels like the longest cold spell I?ve experienced in 15 years of coming to the Northeast
Bloody brass monkey weather💨🌨💧

Thomas, don't worry mate, the heat is about 3 weeks away.  I hope you have an Esky ready to fill with ice and beer.

Agreed Thomas, but the upside for me is that once the sun gets up we have had some of the most pleasant days weather wise that I can remember in  my time coming up here since 2004.

Yes the sun radiates that heat that you can actually sit in, an unusual phenomena for most of the year🌞

Our new AC is only 8 months old so I may wait until Xmas for a clean, I recall seeing a guy that cleans them for 500 bht, is that a reasonable price?

We have our aircons cleaned at least every 6 months (don?t forget they work overtime in the Hot season) and yeah 500 THB is a good price, we pay more and we even supply him with a gas (R32) cannister for gas refill as our aircon guy doesn?t have any other customers (yet) which use this type of air refrigerant. ;)
