Chiang Rai - The Chiang Rai provincial administration Friday announced the province as a disaster zone after it has been hit by cold spell for more than five days.

The announcement allowed the Chiang Rai Civil Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office to spend Bt300,000 budget to urgently provide winter clothing to the poor in province.

Suthep Dejchaisri, head of the office, said a province which saw the mercury drop below than 15 Celsius degree for five consecutive day could be declared a cold spell disaster zone.

We are only 3 hours away and I swear we felt that 15 deg Celsius drop here in Chiang Mai. Biglaan talaga from last Sunday, where it was merely cool. Not sure if it was big news in CNX, but no outreach program from our schools.
