Rains expected over Chinese New Year weekend: NEA
Passing and heavy showers are forecast this Chinese New Year weekend due to strong wind conditions over the South China Sea, the National Environment Agency said Thursday (26 January).
“A monsoon surge is expected to affect the South China Sea and our surrounding region over the next few days,” NEA said.
The surge could cause passing showers in Singapore on Friday afternoon, the eve of Chinese New Year. Periodic heavy showers are expected on Saturday, the first day of the Chinese New Year.
The surge is forecast to gradually weaken on Sunday, with passing showers expected in the afternoon.
The daily temperature this weekend is forecast to range between 22°C and 32°C, according to NEA.
