Hello everyone,

I have a quick and tbh, I guess quite unsual question for this group but I hope you could give me an advise.

I could book a super cheap flight to Thailand in just two days. (Saudia Airlines).

However, I'm worrying about the current weather report and forecast.

Is it currently worth it? I know it's still rainy season and in fact, some daily rain would be fine.

However, it would be really sad if its just gray, not sunny at all and super rainy everyday or even worse (Chiang Mai).

If you think it should be fine, any idea where's the best place to go in these times? (10th - 22nd)

Was talking to someone and it was said that e.g. Koh Phangan the weather almost never is like the forecast.

I really love Thailand but also Crete, Greece is on the table and it seems to be super sunny there day by day - temperatures about the same as well.

Kinda not sure what to do and unfortunately I need to act fast.

What do you think? 🤔

Thank you!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is considering a last-minute trip to Thailand despite it being the rainy season, and is uncertain about the weather conditions expected from October 10th to 22nd. They seek advice on whether to proceed with booking a flight or to choose an alternative destination, like Crete. A comment suggests that while it may be grey, the rain typically occurs at night, making daytime enjoyable.

It is grey a lot but it’s still hot, I just apreciate that it’s a more tolerable heat. The rain is mostly at night and not every night.
