Weather Forecast Singapore


Weather Forecast Singapore
Heavy and intense rain fell over many parts of Singapore on Wednesday afternoon, causing localised flash floods.

About 90mm of rain fell in less than one hour (between 3pm-4pm). The amount of rainfall is approximately more than 50% of the average monthly rainfall for May.

The heavy rain caused localised flash floods in two areas including the junction of Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 and 8 and Bishan Street 13. The flash floods subsided within 20 minutes.

PUB advises the public to exercise caution as flash floods may still occur in the event of heavy storms.

The public can obtain the latest weather reports, including heavy rain warnings, by tuning in to radio broadcasts, calling NEA's weather forecast hotline at 6542-7788, visiting the NEA website at www.nea.gov.sg or accessing the mobile weather service (Weather@SG - weather.nea.gov.sg).
