PTSD

Today I Googled 'Climate in Thailand.'  Here's what it said:

"Bangkok has a tropical monsoon climate and the highest average temperature of any city in the world.  Since Thailand experience high temperature and high humidity, Bangkok, the capital city of it remains the same all year round.  The climate of Bangkok can be divided into two key parts, wet and dry, however, some add cool season noticing some weather variation.

Rainy Season
In Bangkok, the rainy season really picking up in June. Since this is 'wet season', tourists will witness plenty of sunshine. Moreover, rain can sometimes come to release the dwellers from the temperatures that stand in the high 30s.

Cool Season
Although the temperatures scarcely vary greatly from month to month, the experienced tourists believe October through until February is probably the best time to travel Bangkok.  There occur occasional shower and gentle wind that provide a break from the heat.

Dry Season
November to February is the driest time in Bangkok and this is also a popular time to travel Bangkok. This combined with high humidity means that it can be somewhat uncomfortable at times. During this time, weather will show extreme temperature."



So, to sum up, Bangkok is the same all year round, except for the rainy season when there is the most sunshine.  Oct through Feb is the 'cool season', except for Nov through Feb when there are extreme temperatures.

Sounds nice.  So why am I having flashbacks of being hot and sweaty?
