In Singapore, rain is a common part of daily life because of its tropical climate. Certain areas in Singapore are more prone to heavy rain and flash floods, especially during the monsoon season.

The central and western regions of Singapore, such as Bukit Timah, Jurong, and Bukit Panjang, often record higher rainfall. 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 more info flash flooding after heavy storms. 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.

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

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