In Singapore, rain is a common part of daily life because of its tropical climate. Some parts of Singapore tend to get heavier downpours, particularly during the Northeast and Southwest monsoons.

Areas like Bukit Timah, Bukit Panjang, and Jurong usually see more rain due to their elevation and surrounding greenery. This is partly because these areas have more forested land and hilly terrain, which can attract heavier clouds.

City areas such as Orchard, Newton, and parts of the CBD occasionally face flash flooding after heavy storms. Heavy downpours in these locations sometimes result in temporary flooding on roads and walkways.

While eastern neighbourhoods generally receive less rainfall, they’re not immune to sudden heavy rain.

Many Singaporeans use the NEA’s weather radar or apps like myENV to see where it’s raining in real time.

Overall, rain can happen check here anywhere in Singapore but knowing which areas are most affected helps with travel planning, especially during monsoon months.
