I was talking to my gf in Bangkok a few hours ago... there's a tank sitting on the main road outside her house. The army declared today a holiday so she didn't have to risk going to work. Apparently you're not allowed to gather in groups of 5+ and they're asking people to stay home and not move around. They've surrounded the royal palace with tanks and troops to protect the king, and are saying they'll arrest the prime minister if he returns to Bangkok. The army have control of the local media and the phone lines are worse than normal. So far the internet's still in place.

The army claim they're not gonna retain power but return it to the people ASAP, and have sworn allegiance to the King. Now we just wait and see what unfolds.
