Weather in Snooky

Hi James.

Rainy season is what it says: rain, rain, rain.
Of course big differences between the midlands and the coast/highlands.
It's like annual 1400 mm in the midlands to 4000 mm in the highlands and the coast.

September and October are the worst in SHV, with nearly every day rain. Although on some days it might be a heavy shower or two of one hour each, there are also days of 8 hours pouring rain.
It is part of being in a tropical country, 6 months dry and 6 months wet.

For what to do in that time that is up to you and personal. I work a lot on my computer, doing photo editing of photos I took earlier [I'm a nature photographer hobbyist], I go out at night when I want, sometimes take a tuktuk instead of my motorbike, but I go out when I want.
Rainy season is a fact and you have to adapt to the circumstances. No problem for me.

Good thing is in SHV is no flooding except some roads after heavy rain but that settles in one hour. SHV is on a hill so all rainwater flows to the sea. Other areas of Cambodia have annual flooding and as this statement says quite some in Siem reap too:
"Ongoing raining causes flooding throughout most parts of Cambodia, especially Siem Reap Province".

It's a matter of adapting situations James, be positive and keep smiling.
