Explanation

กรมอุตุนิยมวิทยา is made up of กรม, meaning a government department, and อุตุนิยมวิทยา, meaning meteorology. It is used as the name of Thailand’s meteorological agency, especially in news reports, official announcements, and weather information. It often appears with verbs such as ประกาศ “announce,” รายงาน “report,” and เตือน “warn.”

Usage

You will commonly see this term in official weather reports and news about heavy rain, storms, temperature changes, sea conditions, and flood risks. It is also used when citing an official weather source.

Caution

Use พยากรณ์อากาศ for “weather forecast.” กรมอุตุนิยมวิทยา is the agency name, so it is natural to say พยากรณ์อากาศจากกรมอุตุนิยมวิทยา when referring to a forecast from that agency.
