TLDR : Answer Summary
Due to road closures caused by rain on the route to Maesai, alternative destinations for a 90-day border bounce need to be considered. Suggested options include Chiang Khong on the Laos side, Mae Sot, and various routes through Chiang Rai.

Or get a new 90 day of stay with a multiple entry Visa or 60 days with the Multiple entry Tourist Visa. Just to add before others start complain about it.
