Singapore can expect more rainy days in the first half of September.
According to statements made by the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) via TODAY, Singapore is supposed to be facing a dry season, typically occurring from June to October. The unexpected wet weather can be attributed to the relatively higher occurrence of convective thunderstorms and the Sumatra squalls.
Several flash floods have already been reported over the last few months in places such as Mackenzie Road and Telok Blangah Rise.
Drier conditions will soon set in, MSS says, and hotspot activities may still be expected in our region. It is also possible that Singapore may be affected by transboundary haze soon if prevailing winds blow them in our direction.
