When the wind blows with force.
خلفية ثقافية
Wind is often seen as a precursor to rain. If a Thai person says 'Lom Raeng,' they are often implicitly saying 'It's about to rain, let's find cover.' The 'Lom Nao' (Winter Wind) is a source of joy, as it brings the only cool weather of the year. It is celebrated in many pop songs. Kite fighting (Wao) is a traditional sport that relies entirely on 'Lom Raeng.' There are specific names for winds from different directions. In some rural areas, a sudden 'Lom Raeng' without clouds is sometimes thought to be spirits passing by, though this is less common in modern cities.
The 'Mak' Rule
If you want to sound more natural, always add 'Mak' (very) or 'Jang' (so) when talking about the wind. Thais rarely just say 'Lom Raeng' in casual talk; they usually emphasize it.
Umbrella Danger
If someone says 'Lom Raeng' while you have an umbrella, take it as a hint to close it. Thai umbrellas are often not built for 'Lom Raeng'!
