Several locations across the island recorded temperatures exceeding 36°C today (13 May 2023).

The highest temperature of 37.0°C, the year’s warmest so far, was recorded at Ang Mo Kio. This is the highest daily maximum temperature for the month of May, exceeding the previous May high of 36.7°C recorded at Admiralty just last year. It also ties with the all-time record of 37.0°C for highest daily maximum temperature, last recorded at Tengah on 17 Apr 1983. Singapore’s temperature records started in 1929.

The current warm and dry conditions are expected to continue tomorrow (14 May 2023). Short-duration showers are expected next week which may help to moderate the warm temperatures.
