RE: Tropical Sky Blue Friday📷 Colorchallenge
Wow that's a perfect shot - I'm curious about the flooding roads, that would have made an interesting - although - not so inviting - photo.

Didn't have a chance and any desire to take photos of that mess! :) But you can watch about this here https://www.thephuketnews.com/tv/post/floods-and-landslides-pricier-smokes-booze-pineapple-eyes-september-15-1248-Segments.php#8aZPqV5Fjm5tzg5F.97 to get the idea how bad it was :) And I just got in the middle of it on my way to work:)
Back in late 2012 I had taken a bit of video/photos during a severe storm at the beach (which lead to flooding), wish I'd done a little more then. The roar from the ocean and the solid, consistent wind rushing toward the shore was a deterrent... There was coastal flooding and rocks up to maybe 15 kg rolled onto the boardwalk... Fun times!
They had motorbikes floating everywhere in Patong! And police station half under water:) But I was stuck at work, couldn't leave anywhere :( I already got enough during my motorbike trip to work - 35 km under the pouring rain with the road flooded 40-50cm in some areas:) I was happy not to get stuck in the middle of those giant puddles!
