As we move into the weekend, Singapore is poised to experience a mix of weather patterns featuring cloud cover, possible rain showers, and warm temperatures. Here's what to expect in your local climate over the next three days:
The day begins with patchy rain nearby, leading to a maximum temperature of 28°C (82°F) and a minimum temperature of 27°C (80°F). Humidity is relatively high at 81%, which could make it feel warmer, with a heat index peaking at 32°C (89°F). Expect a total of about 1.0 mm of rain throughout the day, coming from light rain showers that may persist into the evening. Winds will be light, at around 11 km/h (7 mph), predominantly from the east.
As the evening approaches, cloud cover will remain extensive, reducing the chances for stargazing. Expect the sun to set at 7:10 PM, with a waxing gibbous moon rising later in the day, illuminating the night sky.
Saturday promises to be a bit warmer, with a daytime high reaching 30°C (86°F), while nighttime temperatures will drop to around 27°C (80°F). The day will start clear but will gradually feature patchy rain nearby, particularly in the afternoon when the likelihood of thundery outbreaks increases.
With a humidity level of about 71%, the heat index could soar to an uncomfortable 34°C (94°F), especially during peak hours. Rainfall could contribute up to 0.1 mm in sporadic showers.
As we welcome the night, cloud cover will linger, but you may still get a glimpse of the full moon, as moon illumination reaches 100%.
The weekend wraps up with similar weather patterns—expect mostly cloudy skies with occasional light rain. The temperature will hover between 26°C (79°F) and 28°C (82°F). This Sunday will be marked by more consistent rainfall as the chance of rain stands at 100% throughout the day, and significant precipitation (up to 2.6 mm) is anticipated closer to midday.
Amidst the rainy spells, there will still be opportunities for brief sunny intervals, particularly early in the day before clouds dominate the afternoon. As expected, humidity levels will remain high, enhancing the muggy feel in the air.
