More Rain Expected in the Rest of August Between Late Morning & Afternoon

Yesterday, we speculated that the “warm” part of the month of August is behind us, mainly because it’s going to rain almost every single day for the next two weeks.

Well, the official weathermen (women) of Singapore has spoken up:

More Rain Expected in the Rest of August Between Late Morning & Afternoon

Expect more thunderstorms in the second fortnight of August, MSS says.

While some of us might dislike rain, especially those who don’t have the fortune to work from home, there is a silver lining.

It won’t be as hot in Singapore for the next two weeks, with temperature ranging between 32 and 33 degree Celsius, although you can expect temperature as high as 34 degree Celsius on some days.

Again, our advice to prepare your umbrella still stand because on most days, you can expect short-duration moderate to heavy thundery showers between the late morning and afternoon.

On a few days, it could even extend into the evening.

On some nights, it can still get relatively warm and humid with minimum temperatures of around 28 degree Celsius.

Here’s a video if you want to hear the experts explain the forecast to you:

Rain is Still Expected Every Day, Including Mornings

According to AccuWeather’s weather forecast, it’s going to rain almost every single day for the next two weeks.

Today (Saturday), afternoon thunderstorms are expected while on Sunday, 16 Aug, a thunderstorm is expected in the morning.

So if you’re used to exercising in the mornings on Sundays, it might be time to prep a wet weather plan.

Monday will continue the trend with some rain and a thunderstorm.

For the entirety of the workweek from 18 Aug to 21 Aug, we’ll get a brief respite on Tuesday before resuming the rainy weather.

In other words, prepare an umbrella to bring whenever you go out, or you might either be drenched when you get to the office or drenched when you go out to get lunch.

On the bright side, this also gives you the excuse to layer up your fashion.

After all, in typical Singapore fashion, it’s going to get cold when it rains (so you’ll need a jacket) and heats up really fast when it stops (strip down into lighter, breathable, clothing).

But hey, at least it (kind of) work out since we shouldn’t really venture out of our homes often during these Covid-19 times, eh?
