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.

The central and western regions of Singapore, such as Bukit Timah, Jurong, and Bukit Panjang, often record higher rainfall. The abundance of parks and forested land in these regions can contribute to increased rainfall.

Even busy urban spots like Orchard Road and the CBD have had issues with sudden heavy rain causing flash floods. Heavy downpours in these locations sometimes result in temporary flooding on roads and walkways.

The eastern parts like Bedok and Pasir Ris may get slightly less rain but are still affected during monsoon periods.

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

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