Singapore’s weather is humid and rain can occur almost any day of the year. While rain falls across the island, some neighbourhoods may experience more intense showers at times.
Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and its surroundings are well-known for frequent wet weather. This is partly because these areas have more forested land and hilly terrain, which can attract heavier clouds.
Flood-prone zones include the city centre, Orchard Road, and parts of Bukit Timah. During intense rainfall, these areas can see water levels rise quickly due to the more info drainage system being overwhelmed.
The eastern parts like Bedok and Pasir Ris may get slightly less rain but are still affected during monsoon periods.
Many Singaporeans use the NEA’s weather radar or apps like myENV to see where it’s raining in real time.
In summary, being aware of rainy hotspots can help Singaporeans avoid delays and stay safe during wet weather.
