The city was also full of excitement with Thai tourists enjoying the chilly weather this morning, and these photos of the frost on a car went viral.

Hold on to your scarves; the reports from the Meteorological Department, weren’t kidding about the cold winds as they reported the 7-day weather Forecast, which sees northeastern winds reaching up to 10-12 km/hr….BRRR!

Although it’s X’mas season amid a pandemic,  it doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy winter in a tropical country like Thailand without travelling. 

Besides, we might not be able to go on grand winter trips to Europe just yet, but it’s also nice to see more of our own backyard for a change.
