"For Singapore, the showers in the first week (of July) are forecast to ease, and dry and warm weather are expected in the second week of the month," it said.
The daily temperature could reach 35 degrees Celsius on some days, but is expected to range between 25 degrees Celsius and 34 degrees Celsius on most days in the coming fortnight.
"On some nights, minimum night-time temperatures of around 28 degrees Celsius can be expected, especially when the prevailing winds blow from the southeast and bring in warm and humid air from the sea," said the Met Service.
