BANGKOK, 13 May 2015 (NNT) - The astrologer predicted during the royal ploughing ceremony earlier today that there will be more water in Thailand this year.

 

The forecast was made after the astrologer picked up four pieces of cloth presented to him and studied them. He revealed that farms situated on higher grounds will benefit from a large amount of rain this year.

 

However, he added that those in the low-lying areas could be damaged by the floods.

 

The oxen have chosen to eat only sesame and grass during the ceremony, which was presented alongside five other items including rice, corns, green beans, water and liquor.

 

The oxen’s selection was interpreted as water and food becoming abundant in Thailand this year.

The oxen are about as accurate as the weather bureau most of the time.

We have not had rain here at the ranch in quite some weeks and we are just 50 Km SW of Bangkok

Bangkok has been soaked, and Issan has had thunderstorms. I'm north of Pattaya, and the rain mostly just passes us by.

I was down your way (Ban Saen) doing the beach thing on 01 May.

 

Same-same here. We had thunder in the morning but no rain. I can see the dark sky over the Bangkok area now.

Yes it is still very dark here. And a light drizzle at the moment.
