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. During intense rainfall, these areas can see water levels rise quickly due to the drainage system being overwhelmed.

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

To stay updated on rain areas in Singapore, residents often check weather apps or the NEA’s “rain area” map before heading out.

Whether you’re commuting or planning outdoor activities, keeping track of rain-prone areas in Singapore is always useful.
