It looks like our reprieve from the torrential rain we experienced over last week and the weekend might be temporary.
The National Environment Agency (NEA) warned on Thursday evening that there could be a comeback of strong rain and wind in the next two days.
Here's the notice posted to their Facebook page:
A monsoon surge is expected to affect the South China Sea and our surrounding region over the next few days. The surge is forecast to bring occasionally windy conditions with passing showers in the afternoon on Friday (27 Jan). Cloudy and occasionally windy conditions with periods of showers, heavy at times, are expected on Saturday (28 Jan), the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The surge is forecast to gradually weaken on Sunday (29 Jan), the second day of the Lunar New Year, and it is expected to be occasionally windy, with passing showers in the afternoon. The daily temperature during the weekend is forecast to range between 22°C and 32°C.
On the plus side, more rain means more water in the Linggiu Reservoir to prepare us for the typically dry February and March at the end of the Northeast Monsoon. *fingers crossed*
Meanwhile, happy Chinese New Year and stay dry!
