Sunset at Lake Mabrachan, Chonburi
This reservoir is called Mabprachan. It would normally be 20 feet higher. According to the Thai Ministry of Agriculture the El Nino weather pattern is creating serious drought conditions. Thai farmers are urged not to plant a 2nd rice crop. Agriculture uses 70%:of water. Next is industry then tourism. The water should be 20 feet over these peoples heads. Some forecast the rainy season will be later and shorter in future years. I could walk a 100 yds out from the bank of reservoir to take this.
