You probably already knew about the rain if you’ve travelled to work today.

It doesn’t matter which part of the island you’re on because, well, it’s raining everywhere.

But what you might not know, is that it’s likely going to rain every single day.

Fortnightly Outlook For The First Two Weeks Of August

The first two weeks of August were predicted to be warmer and less wet.

The temperature will be expected to hang around the 33 to 34 degree Celsius range on most days, and even 35 degree Celsius if it gets especially hot.

And they’re right, especially at night where it’s warm and humid.

They had said that some nights are expected to be warm and humid with a temperature of 28 degree Celsius.

Rainfall for the first two weeks of August was expected to be slightly below-normal over most parts of Singapore.

Now that the first two weeks are over, and while we’re waiting for the experts to come up with the next fortnightly outlook, we decided to take a look at what it’s going to be like entering the next two weeks.

It’ll Be Raining Every Day, Including In The Morning

Well, it seems like the “warm” part of the month is behind us now because after checking AccuWeather, we realised that it’s going to rain every single day for the next four days.

On 14 and 15 Aug, 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?
