This is the first time, I got stucked in a Flood in Bangkok.
The government issued flood warning yesterday. They going to flood Thailand by releasing the flood gate at one of the dam.
Usually you will receive this national emergency broadcast on your phone. Feed it to ChatGPT will tell you what it is. They actually issued another warning, and this time, by 6-10pm on Sep 25, they going to release flood gate in 3x dams up at the north. That means, flooding every where. Golf course will be flooded definitely.

Just look at in front of our hotel. We stayed at Lancaster Bangkok, just 500m away from Makkasan Train Station (Airport Express) and Petchaburi MRT.
This is result of overnight. A day before, every one tries to get home but traffic jam every where. This is 10pm on Sep 24. In front of hotel.
Traffic is extremely bad. Luckily, we went back hotel around 8pm after dinner.
I think the owner of this vehicle stayed at the lobby of Lancaster, the bellboy even give her a blanket. Must be devastating.
I got only 1 luggage. I can easily get to the Train station.
A lot a lot of people house got flooded.
Our drive to airport direction has minor flood too.
