Heavy Thundery Showers and Flash Flood Risk Expected Across Singapore on Monday Afternoon
Published
Heavy rain is expected over many areas of Singapore on Monday, November 2, according to recent weather information. The thundery showers are likely to start in the afternoon, and there is a risk of flash floods between 2 pm and 3 pm.
Flash floods happen when a large amount of rain falls in a short time. They can make roads slippery and cause water to build up quickly in low-lying areas. Residents are advised to be careful when travelling during this period, especially drivers and people who walk or cycle outdoors.
Thunderstorms often bring strong winds and lightning as well as heavy rain. People should avoid standing under trees or open spaces during lightning, and they should keep an eye on official weather updates throughout the day in case the forecast changes.
In short, Singaporeans should prepare for wet conditions on Monday afternoon. Planning ahead, carrying an umbrella or raincoat, and allowing extra travel time may help people avoid problems caused by the rain.
