SINGAPORE — More rain can be expected in the first half of November, with the wetter weather in the coming fortnight expected to bring about relatively lower temperatures to the island on a few days.

This is because the monsoon rain band is forecast to remain over the equatorial Southeast Asia region, the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) said on Monday (Nov 1).

It added that inter-monsoon conditions have been prevailing over Singapore in the second half of October and are expected to persist into this month.

At the same time, winds are forecast to be light and variable in direction and may temporarily blow from the northwest or west on several days.

In the upcoming fortnight, afternoon thundery showers can be expected on most days, with the rain extending into the evening on a few of these days.

MSS said that on a few days, widespread moderate to heavy thundery showers are expected due to the large-scale convergence of winds over Singapore and the surrounding region. In addition, the passage of Sumatra squalls could bring about widespread thundery showers and gusty winds on a few mornings.

“The total rainfall for the first half of November 2021 is forecast to be above average over most parts of the island,” the weather agency said.

During this period, the daily temperatures are forecast to range between 24°C and 33°C.

“Although showers are expected on most days of the fortnight, the daily maximum temperature could still reach a high of around 34°C on a few days,” said MSS.

“In addition, the wetter weather in the coming fortnight may bring relatively lower temperatures to the island on a few days, with daily maximum temperatures below 32°C and daily minimum temperatures below 23°C.”
