Singapore in October Moving into the inter-monsoon, afternoon thunder showers return. Haze lingers into early October in some years. Deepavali, the Hindu festival of lights, falls between mid-October and mid-November and is a public holiday. The date follows the Hindu calendar and moves yearly.
Highs averaged 32°C and lows stayed at 25°C, so the heat hung on long after sunset. Rain fell on 12 days of the month on average. A visitor in 2006 met 6 rain days; one in 2018 met 20. The average of 12 hid that gap.
30 days past 30°C made it a month for early starts and a long lunch indoors. Rain days averaged 16 mm each, so when it rained it rained properly.
