According to the latest Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) media advisory released on Monday (17 Feb), the current Northeast Monsoon conditions are expected to persist, with winds coming mainly from the northwest or northeast.
This means that moderate to heavy thundery showers are expected to affect most parts of the island during the afternoon, and these showers may extend into the evening on certain days.
The forecast also predicts that total rainfall for the second half of the month will be above average across Singapore, so don’t be surprised if those daily downpours become a bit more frequent.
On rainy days, temperatures are likely to dip to around 23°C, but on drier days, expect daytime highs between 33°C and 34°C.
