Actually, I reckon it's got something to do with them Dutch using Google Wind and messing up the weather cycle.

Unseasonable rains to continue: ministry
4 April 2017

The Ministry of Water Resources and Meteorology has predicted that the unseasonable storms will continue until this Sunday.
Ministry spokesman Chan Yutha said the rainy season might arrive on the first week of May this year, a week earlier than in previous years.

According to Yutha, the weather forecast shows that low pressure from the South China Sea has met with high pressure originating from Southern China at the Mekong Delta, and the winds will move to Cambodia today, leading to medium to high levels of rain nationwide.
“The central lowland, northeast plateau and coastal areas might get a medium level of rainfall from Tuesday to Sunday,” he said.

Chhinh Nyda, lecturer and researcher in environmental studies at the Royal University of Phnom Penh, said that not only has the rain arrived early, but the rainfall amount has been higher than expected.
“If you look at the history, there was some rainfall during April too, especially during the second week [of the month]. However, right now . . . it is very early in April . . . there has been a lot of rainfall for the dry season period. Although we do expect rainfall, we do not expect this much rainfall,” he said.

Good news: a drop in temperatures, so you can expect 34-35C for Khmer New Year this year. But, also some rain.

Coolest Holiday for 10 Years Coming, Expert Says
April 7, 2017
If you’re planning to get away next week for Khmer New Year, it might be wise to keep an umbrella on hand. According to the government’s weather authority, the country can expect the lowest holiday temperatures for the past decade amid unseasonal lashings of rain.

The mercury is predicted to drop by about 5 degrees Celsius below the average of recent years as a result of unusually heavy rains this month, said Chan Youttha, spokesman for the Water Resources and Meteorology Ministry.

“Of the last 10 years, the upcoming Khmer New Year will be the coolest. It is usually very hot,” Mr. Youttha said.

During the holiday period—from next Friday to next Sunday, when Cambodians traditionally celebrate with friends and family, and many return to their home provinces—the temperature could be about 34 to 35 degrees Celsius, he said.
“If we compare to last year and the year before, it was 39 to 40 Celsius and in some other places it was up to 42 Celsius,” he said.
