Temperature creeps up past 29°C in parts of Singapore as cold spell ends
Temperatures across much of Singapore rose past 29°C on Tuesday (16 January), signalling the end of a short-lived cold spell in the Republic.
Just last Friday, the temperature in certain parts of Singapore dropped to as low as 21.7°C, in part due to a monsoon surge.
According to figures by the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS), the highest temperature recorded on Tuesday, as of 1.15pm, was at Jurong Island, which was 29.5°C. The day’s lowest temperature was recorded at Jalan Bahar at 22.5°C at 7.34am.
Showers are expected mainly over the southern, eastern and central Singapore on Wednesday afternoon with temperatures ranging from 24°C to 31°C, said the MSS on their website.
