great on-the-ground updates from members. I don't want to

handy resources if you're thinking about heading to

Thailand - or you're there already. But make sure you

search the forum if you've got a specific question about

travel to Thailand - chances are someone's asked it (or

answered it) already for you!

The English-language newspaper Bangkok Post has been

updating on the flood situation.

This Google Crisis Response page has a map with flood

updates as well as lots of information and emergency

links.

Lonely Planet author @CatherineBodry has been tweeting

about the floods. Other helpful Twitter accounts: Patrick

Winn, Bangkok-based Southeast Asia correspondent for the

Global Post: @BKKApologist and Zoe Daniel, ABC

correspondent who tweets as @seacorro.

Trendsmap is a good way to get an overview of the

trending topics on the floods.

Thai Travel News is also a good resource for traveller

updates.
