Many parts of Singapore saw heavy rain and sharp gusts of wind yesterday afternoon, including Raffles Place. According to the National Environment Agency (NEA), short-duration thundery showers can be expected in the second half of the month, mostly in the late morning and afternoon on five to seven days. The south-west monsoon conditions that set in during the first half of the month are expected to persist into the second half. Total rainfall levels are likely to be near the average for June, says NEA.
