Rain, thunder, floods forecast for Cambodia

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Last week (it may have been the week before), Tuol Sangkae, knee deep. If that’s just a prelude, I might buy some waders. We’re on the first floor, which is what some places call the second. Downstairs was a few inches of water all the way through their apartment.

Cleared the drains out, and dumped copious old nappies bobbing around in the jetsam. Nice!

Can you buy gumboots over here? I've had typhoid fever before and I don't recommend it. I know some people brush their teeth with tap water; a practice I would probably refrane from during flooding. Then there's the mosquitoes once the rain dissipates. Hepatitis and there's probably more diseases that you become vulnerable to.
Time to get into a good solid book.

Thunders are cool, but tropical storms, I love them. I just love them. One of the best Mother Nature can throw at us.
