Singapore in April

An inter-monsoon month with weak, variable winds and heavy air. Sudden afternoon thunderstorms that clear afterwards are common, and lightning is frequent. Do outdoor stops in the morning and move indoors in the afternoon.

Days averaged 32°C and nights 25°C. Midday was for air conditioning, a cold drink or a long lunch out of the sun. There were 12 rain days on average, roughly one day in three. A visitor in 2019 met 6 rain days; one in 2007 met 19. The average of 12 hid that gap.

With 29 days above 30°C on average, most of the month felt like high summer. Rain days averaged 17 mm each, so when it rained it rained properly.
