January 2021 was a cold and wet month.
Will it be the same in February, what with all the house visiting and pre-CNY shopping you have to do?
Well, it seems that February has a whole new weather in-store for us.
It’s Going to Be a Hot CNY
According to the weatherman in Singapore, the first two weeks of February will generally be dry and warm.
Due to the stable atmospheric conditions caused by the dry air mass over the Southeast Asia region, fair and warm weather can be expected for the most part of the week.
That doesn’t mean you’re free from the rain, however.
There will still be passing showers over Singapore on a few days.
The second week of the fortnight, however, will be wetter due to strong solar heating of the land areas.
You can expect short-duration thundery showers in the afternoon mostly in the second week, with some extending into the evening on some days.
Nonetheless, the rainfall for the first fortnight of February expected to be below normal over most parts of Singapore.
Temperature Can Go Up to 34°C in the Next 2 Weeks
Temperature for the first fortnight is also forecast to be higher than the previous month, with daily temperatures ranging between 24°C and 33°C on most days.
On days with little or no rain, however, the temperature can increase to 34°C.
In other words, dress lightly but make sure to have an umbrella on hand.
And if you want to do any outdoor activities, this week is your best bet. Same goes for your pre-CNY shopping trips if you haven’t done so.
Reminder: CNY House Visit Rules
Now, as Chinese New Year draws closer, here’s a refresher on the new restrictions that were put into place.
First, only 8 distinct visitors can visit your house per day. Basically, you can’t get 8 relatives to come to your house the morning, and then allow another 8 relatives to come in the afternoon after the first group has left.
Secondly, face masks must be worn during the tossing of yusheng, and that the lohei should be done without any verbalisation of the usual auspicious phrases.
For those who die-die need to louhei together with auspicious phrases, here’s a website which helps you with shouting louhei phrases without putting everyone present into danger.
Remember to keep to the rules because as this expert has said, there is a huge possibility of a potential spike in cases after the festive season, and no one wants a Circuit Breaker Deja Vu.
