SINGAPORE: The weather in the second half of September is expected to be less wet than the the first fortnight, said the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) on Wednesday (Sep 16).
A few warm days and nights can be expected as well, with temperatures hitting a high of around 34 degrees Celsius on some days.

This means short-duration moderate to heavy thundery showers can be expected over parts of the island between the late morning and afternoon on most days, and may extend into the evening on one or two days, said MSS.
On a few mornings, widespread thundery showers with occasional gusty winds can be expected due to the passage of Sumatra squalls.
In all, however, rainfall in the coming two weeks is expected to be less than that in the first fortnight, although September's overall rainfall is expected to be well above-average over most parts of the island.
