About Singapore Weather

Singapore, at 1.4° north latitude in Singapore, lies within the tropics and experiences a warm, humid climate throughout the year. Temperatures typically range from 24°C to 35°C (75°F–95°F) regardless of month, with rainfall — rather than temperature — defining the seasons. The megacity divides its year into a wet season (May – October), driven by the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone and monsoon circulation, and a drier period (November – April) of clearer skies and lower humidity. Even in the dry season, temperatures remain warm; the change in humidity and cloud cover is the most noticeable shift.

Data source: Live weather data is fetched from Open-Meteo — a free, open-source weather API that aggregates data from national meteorological services including NOAA (US), ECMWF (Europe), and DWD (Germany). Current conditions update every 15 minutes. Forecasts use the ECMWF IFS model. Seasonal descriptions are based on the Köppen–Geiger climate classification system derived from the latitude of Singapore (1.35°N) and regional climate patterns.

Singapore Weather — Frequently Asked Questions

The wet season in Singapore (May – October) brings daily afternoon thunderstorms and heavy downpours, though mornings are typically sunny and clear. Temperatures remain warm at 26–34°C (79–93°F). Humidity climbs to 70–90%, making feels-like temperatures noticeably higher than the thermometer reading. Pack a compact umbrella and expect occasional short-term flooding on low-lying streets.
The dry season (November – April) offers the most comfortable conditions: clear skies, lower humidity, and warm temperatures of 24–32°C (75–90°F). This is the peak tourist period in Singapore for outdoor sightseeing and activities. Accommodation tends to book out early during this window, especially over public holidays.
No — the tropical location of Singapore at 1.4° latitude means temperatures almost never fall below 20°C (68°F), even overnight during the coolest months. Snow is impossible. The coolest period coincides with the dry season, when nights may dip to 20–22°C (68–72°F) — still warm by any global standard.
The primary weather risks in Singapore are related to heavy rainfall: flash flooding, landslides in hilly areas, and tropical cyclones near coastlines within the cyclone belt (roughly lat 5°–20°). The city sits at 1.4° north, placing it near the equator where cyclone formation is rare due to low Coriolis force.
The wet-dry cycle in Singapore is driven by the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) — a belt of low pressure near the equator where trade winds converge and cause heavy convective rainfall. As the ITCZ migrates seasonally toward the Northern summer, it brings the wet season. When it retreats, the dry season follows. Regional monsoon systems amplify this pattern across much of Asia and West Africa.
