Singapore's rainfall in Feb 90% less than average: NEA

First, it was record-breaking rainfall three months ago. But now, it is the rising heat that is causing Singaporeans to bring out their umbrellas. Most of Singapore got less than 5 millimetres of rainfall during the first half of February, and that was 90% below average for this time of the year.

Most affected were the central and eastern parts of the island. Things were better in the west, with some moderate rain during the afternoons, but this was still quite below the national average. Heavy rainfall and hot afternoons are expected in March and April.
