And they are caused by the fact that Thailand is located at the junction tropical and subtropical zones. So it rains here with different intensity intensity, all year round.

No, you probably won’t see snow, but frost not a rare occurrence. 2. The central part (Bangkok, Pattaya, Hua Hin); 3. The Andaman Sea area (Phuket, Krabi); 4. The coast Siam Bay (Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Tao).
The climatic season of central Thailand and its southern the sides can be divided into three components: – hot season, – very hot and rainy season.
And if the hot season is more or less stable, then the rainy season is everywhere passes in different ways. And, in particular, on the coasts, it can be in different time period.
