The one good thing about the relentless rains we’ve seen in the past couple of weeks is that no one can see us crying about all the things we can’t do during the pandemic.

Clouds: Think of it as me crying with you

Thanks, clouds.

The rains have driven temperatures down a little, but this is Singapore we’re talking about, so it’s still humid as hell.

One has to admit though, there’s nothing quite like a nap with the pitter-patter of raindrops in the background.

If you’ve been enjoying the wet weather, I have some good news for you.

It’s Going To Be Hot & Wet For First Two Weeks Of September

Grab your umbrellas and raincoats, dear reader, because things are about to get hot and wet.

Editor: There has to be a better way to say that.

Things are about to get spicy and moist?

Editor: Ok never mind please go back to the first one, for the love of god.

The first two weeks of September are going to be humid and wet, said the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) on Tuesday (1 Sept).

During this period, the daily temperature is predicted to range between 25°C and 33°C, though it will go up to 34°C on a few days.

Warm weather can be expected on nights during the second week, MSS said, with temperatures of around 28°C.

It added that there’ll be thundery showers and humid conditions on most days during this period, between the late morning and afternoon.

These showers are expected to be short-duration though, ranging from moderate to heavy.

Due to a line of thunderstorms that usually develops at night over Sumatra – called the Sumatra squall lines – widespread showers with gusty winds can be expected on one or two mornings.

That’s because thundery showers are forecast for the next few days, according to the National Environmental Agency.

These showers are expected to be in the morning and afternoon, however, so you might be able to head to the beach in the night if things dry up quick.

If you’re not telecommuting, remember to bring an umbrella out with you for the next two weeks.

And if you are working from home, avoid working near any bed or couch because the impulse to take a nap during the rains will be too strong to resist.
