Heavy afternoon rain in multiple areas across Singapore

SINGAPORE - Heavy rain for the second consecutive day raised water levels in drains and canals across Singapore to near capacity on Sunday afternoon , although there was no repeat of the flooding on major roads that occurred earlier this month.

Water levels in drains and canals at these locations had reached at least 90 per cent capacity, with PUB advising the public to avoid the areas for the next hour. This was the second day in a row that the PUB had issued flood warnings in the wake of heavy rain. On Saturday, it warned of potential floods in Upper Payar Lebar Road and Seletar Road.

The Meteorological Service Singapore said last Tuesday that more wet weather is expected for the second half of November, as the monsoon rain band is forecast to remain over the South-east Asia region.
