Mr. Songkran, 54, a local resident of Nong Lek Subdistrict, Sikhoraphum District, Surin Province, said that before the event, he was returning from running errands in Surin city around 15:20 when he noticed the sky unusually clear and bright, catching his eye with the strange large cloud formation.
At first glance, the shape reminded him of a Naga head, so he stopped his car by the roadside to watch for about an hour until the cloud gradually dispersed, leaving three clouds in a row. Upon closer inspection, he clearly saw the numbers resembling 985, recorded a video, and shared it with reporters.
