Morning
If you wake up early before the sunrise, you'd normally observe thick mist surrounding the area, this was more obvious at the hilly range behind the town. I still remember when i was in my childhood, there was a saying that if you encounter mist in early morning, that means it is going to be a hot shiny day. The thicker the mist, the hotter the daylight. Well, that saying in some sense is believable over here. It is recommended that you hang out all your wet and damply clothes outside before noon, cause it is the time that is most-best for your clothes to get dried faster. the day would be so hot, you would just like to stay in your room with air-condition at its lowest temperature or you'd want to be under shelter or in the nearby rainforrest. Anyway, i would suggest that if in case you do want to hang your wet clothes outside, make sure that you wash them earlier or just soak them in soapy water for a night. So right before you go off for breakfast in early morning, you can hang them outside. Satu lagi kalu kena curik itu aku tak jamin! One thing for sure, if you hang your clothes without first washing them, once they got dried they will smell like dead chicken or even live tapir. I surely know if i were around close to you if i sense this familiar shit smell. It'd be nothing more because of your own laziness.
Noon
Is unbearably hot. An umbrella would be handy when you walk under the sun. usually at this hour Kuala Tahan inhabitants rather stay in chalets and own houses and thus limit their activities. This is the time when you feel your uncovered head under the sun blazing with fire! (hehe what an exaggeration. i hope you believe it cause i'm no liar)
Evening
The climate changes suprisingly in no time. You wouldn't notice its change if you remain staying in your room perhaps cause you're so full after having crazy lunch, and nothing else that crosses your mind except lying lazily in your room. If you're so, then your are such a lazy bastard! why in the hell you come here if you plan to sleep & lay back in your chalet? Anyway, about the climate here in the evening; it will turn from originally so fucking hot to thick grey cloudy in minutes. If you are lucky, you can notice thunders and lightnings behind the mountain range far aside just before they come to the town. Anyway, if you're fortunate to escape from having any heavy downpour at this time, take this chance to participate in the rapid shooting and visiting orang asli's village. It's worth it if you have never experience them before.
Night
If you miss the rain in the daylight, then you might encounter them at night, or at least some drizzling. So, if you dare enough to go outside despite the possibility of raining, i advice you to join in some outdoor activities like night tracking or safari night. Safari night is one in which you need to ride a four-wheel vehicle at night going deep in the palm estate; the purpose is for you to observe bigger wild animals like harimau hitam, tapir, gajah, porcupine and dunno-shit-else you can find inside those wood. Anyway, i never tried it because i got this advice from the perhilitan guy saying that more travellers have complained that they could see nothing during their safari night except their own ugly friends who happened to be squatting next to themselves. Thus i don't want to take any chance fooling myself riding 4-wheel vehicle paying expensively where i can easily (i think so) ride one in KL. so i highly discourage this.
After mid nite
Go to sleep laaah, what else you wanna do? Climate change at this time is irrelevant cause you should be sleeping already.
Well, that's enough with my mumbling, if you wanna know more, just kick your lazy ass to come here to Kuala Tahan and feel the experience yourself.
