The temperature at the peak of Doi Inthanon, Thailand's highest mountain, dropped to 0.3-1°C this morning, while Bangkok saw around 19°C.

According to the Thai Meteorological Department, from January 12-13, a strong cold front from China will bring lower temperatures and strong winds across the country. The northern and northeastern regions will experience a 1-3°C drop, while the central region, including Bangkok, and the eastern region will see a drop of 1-2°C. 

The strong northeast monsoon will bring heavy rain to the southern region, with waves in the Gulf of Thailand reaching 2-4 meters and in the Andaman Sea, 1-3 meters. Mariners should avoid sailing in these areas, especially near thunderstorms, until January 13.
