Tourists have since arriving in flocks to the mountain peak of Doi Inthanon to get the feel of the winter breeze and to witness sea of clouds enveloping the mountains before the sun is up.

For the next 24 hours, the northern region would see a drop of 2-4 degrees Celsius due to strong cold front from China which is still looming over the upper part of Thailand, the Meteorological Department announced.

Temperatures between 8-14 degrees Celsius at minimum and 17-21 degrees Celsius at maximum were forecast in the mountain peaks in the north.

The mountain tops in the Northeast are also predicted to have freezing weather.

In the capital Bangkok, however, lowest recorded temperature this morning ranged from 22-23 degrees Celsius with the hottest temperature between 31-33 degrees Celsius.
