True to its Southeast Asian location, Singapore is characterized by a
hot and humid climate. Located just 1 degree north of the equator, it
quite naturally enjoys a tropical/equatorial climate.
The island does not have clear-cut seasons like summer, spring, autumn
and winter. The weather is warm and humid all year round. Rainfall is
almost an everyday phenomenon, even during the non-monsoon period. These
brief showers are usually quite refreshing, as they provide respite
from the sun.
Due to its geographical location and maritime exposure, Singapore’s climate is characterized by uniform temperature and pressure, high humidity and abundant rainfall. The average temperature is between 25 degrees Celsius and 31 degrees Celsius. Thunderstorms occur on 40% of all days. Relative humidity is in the range of 70% – 80%. April is the warmest month, January is the coolest month and November is the wettest month.
Rainstorm approaching but went off quickly.
It rained on Monday, but for a short while only.
and again on Wednesday, for only 20 minutes.
After the short rain, the sun came out sometimes together with Mr Rainbow.
A very cloudy morning, a few days ago.
What I love about the hot sunny days is the free and natural dryer for my laundry, they get dried very fast.
Weather forecast for today and the next few days.

I love your laundry. I guess you get used to the humidity. I do not like humidity - our summers get humid at times.
The 4 seasons are what I like best about where I live. I have spent a lot of time in the Caribbean countries and do not care for the humidity. Your photos are beautiful Jama as always. Great post. The second to last we call buttermilk skies.

Well, I learned SO MUCH from your post today about where you live! Thank you so much! Great photos!
u bagus great teacher. I never learn to hang laundry like that. luckily for me, I didn't have to. very scared of the bamboo pole falling
oh boy that brought back some memories of Singapore. My grandfather used to live at Toa Payoh on the 9th floor.
Love the rainbow shots! :)
Great post, Jama. Informative - I had imagined it would be hotter than that in Singapore. Love the raindrops and rainbow shot. You are lucky, living in a high rise, to be able to dry your laundry naturally like that!
I pulled one of your photos for Spotlight. was hard to choose because each one told a story about your weather.
The 5th picture of the rainbow and raindrops is awesome! This is a great post, I learned a lot about Singapore from it :)
