The climate of Singapore Island

Singapore Island is located in the tropics and has been controlled by the equatorial low pressure zone for many years. The equatorial region has a rainy climate, long summer and no winter. The annual temperature difference and daily temperature difference are small, and the annual average temperature is between 24 degrees Celsius and 35 degrees Celsius. The highest temperature in Leng Yue is 65438+ 10 month. Due to the influence of the northeast monsoon from China and the southward shift of the low-pressure belt, the dry northeast wind will make the average low temperature in Singapore hover around 23 to 24 degrees Celsius, and the weather will be better. During April-May, under the influence of the northward shift of the low pressure belt and the weakening of the high pressure belt in East Asia, the temperature will rise slightly and the rainfall will increase.

The humidity in Singapore Island is relatively high, with an average daily relative humidity of 79% in the morning and 73% in the afternoon. There is abundant rainfall and frequent thunderstorms. The annual average rainfall is about 2400mm, and the rainy season is from 165438+ 10 to 65438+ 10. Due to the influence of wet monsoon, there is more rain. In addition, due to the rapid development of downtown Singapore for decades, the whole country is affected by the heat island effect, and the average temperature is significantly higher than that of neighboring tropical cities. The early immigrants of Singapore Island mostly gathered in the mouth of the Singapore River in the south-central part, and other areas were mostly tropical rain forests or agricultural land. Today, except for a few nature reserves, they are basically urbanized.
