The rainy season will officially arrive on Monday and end in mid-October for most parts of the country. The Meteorological Department made the announcement on Friday, although some parts of the country have been experiencing cloudy skies and intermittent showers this week. The rainy season typically lasts until mid-October, except for areas along the southern coast on the Gulf of Thailand where it can end up to four months later. The weather agency said light rain could be expected between late June and mid-July, leading to the possibility of insufficient water for farmers outside irrigation zones. But the scarcity will be alleviated by stronger downpours that typically take place in August and September, it said.
