Hope we’ll see more aurora clouds!

Let’s hope that aurora clouds will be more commonly seen in Singapore in the near future so everyone has the opportunity to marvel at its grandeur.

While it likely had no cooling effects on Singapore’s weather, we hope that it was successful in driving away the dreaded Friday blues for those who caught a glimpse of it!
