Hold on to your sunhats because you’re about to experience some serious sizzle.

According to the weatherman, the last two weeks of June 2023 are set to crank the thermostat up a notch. Imagine temperatures so high that you could fry an egg on the pavement (note: actual results may vary, and also, it’s not recommended).

The rest of this month is expected to be steamier than a sauna on the sun, with daily maximum temperatures tip-toeing around a whopping 34 degrees Celsius and even daring to dash up to a sweaty 35 degrees on some days.

And the nights? They’re just itching to keep the party going, with balmy temps hovering at around 29 degrees Celsius.

The second half of this June is also staging a heist on rainfall, expecting to be as dry as a well-told sarcasm by our resident Goody Feed blue cats. But, don’t start hoarding water just yet.

It’s not all sun and games, though, for we’re still on the invite list for localized, short-duration thundery showers in the afternoon. And let’s not forget about the Sumatra squalls, those uninvited guests expected to arrive with gusty winds and widespread thundery showers during the unholy pre-dawn hours and morning on a day or two. Perfect excuse not to go for the morning runs your doctor has been talking about (what run?).

Despite all this excitement, the rainfall forecast is still looking more ‘desert’ than ‘rainforest’ for the second half of June.

So, brace yourselves; it’s going to be a sizzling end to the month. Slap on that sunscreen, grab your fanciest fan, and stay hydrated. June’s decided to turn the heat up, and it’s not backing down!

First Half of June Was Actually Cooler

Despite what you feel, the first half of June was decidedly chill compared to May’s heatwave that saw daily max temperatures hitting the 35-degree mark.

But, June still had its hot moments, with three days where the daily max temp climbed above 34 degrees Celsius. Pulau Ubin even snatched the record for the highest daily maximum temperature of 34.7 degrees Celsius on 2 June.

Plus, we had a few nights that were as warm and cozy as a tropical beachfront, particularly over the southern and eastern parts of the island.
