Warm days, thundery showers expected in first half of June
The first half of June will consist of “a few warm days” and “short-duration thundery showers”, said the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) in a media advisory on Tuesday (Jun 2).
MSS said in a news release that during the next fortnight, "Southwest Monsoon conditions are forecast to set in and low-level winds are expected to blow from southeast or south-southwest”, and that Singaporeans can expect several warm afternoons with maximum temperatures of around 34 degrees Celsius.
Showers are also forecast for the late morning and early afternoon, caused by "strong solar heating of land areas". The showers are expected to occur on at least five to seven days during this period.
MSS added that thundery showers with gusty winds can also be expected on up to two days – “due to Sumatra squalls”. These are likely to happen pre-dawn and in the morning, met officials said.
Those in Singapore may experience “slightly hazy conditions” on some days, during the early morning, “due to the accumulation of particulate matter under light wind conditions”, MSS said.
