Singapore’s weather is tropical and rain can occur almost any day of the year. Some parts of Singapore tend to get heavier downpours, particularly during the Northeast and Southwest monsoons.

Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and its surroundings are well-known for frequent wet weather. The abundance of parks and forested land in these regions can contribute to increased rainfall.

City areas such as Orchard, Newton, and parts of the CBD occasionally face flash flooding after heavy storms. After strong showers, you might spot water pooling in low-lying city areas before it drains away.

In the east, Pasir Ris and Bedok tend to get less rain overall, but they still see occasional storms, especially in December and January.

Many Singaporeans use the NEA’s weather website 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.
