The sky is completely but thinly overcast, which is normal for this time of year. This should be the last month of Rainy Season. The Rainy Season has not been bountiful this year. Lake Boraphet (central Thailand's largest) is not full. My gut says it's going to be a real drought next year, because of the ongoing El Niño, but I think I'll have water because of the lake and the Chao Phaya river.

Almost no information coming out of Israel since Hamas's attack on 7 Oct. I see nuggets on the Internet. For example Haaretz reported on people demanding Netanyahu resign a few days ago. I haven't seen any follow-up and I don't know if it's because the Main Stream Media (MSM) are suppressing the news. Lots of speculation, of course, but mostly about Arab States. Apparently the Israelis are bombing every day, thousands of bombs, but no information on how many Palestinians have been killed. A hospital was bombed, and Israel is claiming not to have done it, which I don't believe. The explosive charge was too large -- 500 reported killed. Apparently the ground incursion has been delayed because the poorly trained infantry would (will) suffer heavy losses.
