Singapore’s weather is humid 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.

The central and western regions of Singapore, such as Bukit Timah, Jurong, and Bukit Panjang, often record higher rainfall. 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.

While eastern neighbourhoods generally receive less rainfall, they’re not immune to sudden heavy rain.

For live rain updates, the NEA website and weather apps are reliable sources for checking affected areas before leaving home.

Whether you’re commuting or planning outdoor check here activities, keeping track of rain-prone areas in Singapore is always useful.
