Frost Forms on Doi Inthanon as Cold Weather Continues

CHIANG MAI — Cold weather continues in northern Thailand, with frost still reported at Doi Inthanon National Park despite a slight rise in temperatures, park officials said Monday.

The lowest temperature at the summit of Thailand’s highest peak was recorded at 6 degrees Celsius, while ground-level grass temperatures dropped to 0.8 degrees Celsius, causing frost to form on grass and flowers.

Doi Inthanon National Park chief Jeeraniti Cheungsaat said skies were clear early Monday, with good air quality at the summit and the Kew Mae Pan nature trail. Temperatures measured 6 degrees Celsius at the summit, 8 degrees at Kew Mae Pan and 12 degrees at park headquarters.

Tourists were able to experience cold weather, morning sunshine, sea of mist and winter flowers, including blooming Himalayan cherry blossoms, within the park, officials said.
