Rainy season coming

[Kaixing]

The road will be wet and slippery, be careful when you drive during this time of monsoon season. (Higher accident time of the year)

 

At least you don't have to wash car, let the rain clean her own.

Be prepared for the rainy season.

 

According to National Environment Agency's (NEA), the north-east monsoon is expected to set in around mid-November.

 

Periods of moderate to heavy rain are expected to last till January.

 

During this time, high tides ranging from 3.0 to 3.2 metres could lead to localised flash floods in low-lying areas such as Lorong Buangkok, Jalan Seaview, Meyer Road, Lorong 101 to Lorong 106 Changi and Everitt North Road.

 

Motorists travelling along roads in these areas are advised to exercise caution if there are flash floods.

 

The national water agency, PUB, had sent advisories to residents and shopowners in these areas to warn them of the possibility of flash floods and to take necessary precautions to protect their belongings.

 

NEA will also be issuing warnings when heavy rain or prolonged monsoon rain is expected.

 

Latest weather news reports, including heavy rain warnings, can be obtained by tuning in to radio broadcasts, calling NEA's weather forecast hotline at 6542 7788, visiting the NEA website at www.nea.gov.sg or accessing the mobile weather service (Weather@SG - weather.nea.gov.sg).

 

The public can also call PUB's 24-hour Call Centre at 1800-284 6600 to report obstructions in drains or to check the flood situation.

yes...our winter season is here liao...love it....weather is cooling and dont need to sleep w aircon even on a afternoon!

 

even if it rains, we still need to wash the car once a week.

 

it is better to wash off 1 week of dirt and re-accumulate than to let them stack up for weeks...i think it wont be good for the paint also.

Haha, true. If they dont feel confident driving at high speed, let them be. It is better to be safer.
