SINGAPORE: Unlike the first two weeks of July, the weather for the second half of the month is expected to be dry and warm, said the Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) on Monday (Jul 17).
The daily maximum temperatures are forecast to be around 32°C, with some days seeing a high of around 34°C.
Still, there could be short, thundery showers expected mostly in the afternoon for four to six days and widespread thundery showers on one or two days in the early hours of the day, MSS said.
Rainfall forecast for the month remains normal, despite the above-average rainfall for the first two weeks of July. Paya Lebar saw the highest rainfall of 168.4mm while the lowest rainfall was recorded in Changi at 77.2mm.
"The wet weather in the first fortnight of the month was also due to the passage of Sumatra squalls which brought widespread thundery showers with gusty winds to Singapore on some days between the predawn hours and early morning," said MSS.
During this period, the highest daily rainfall of 110.6mm was recorded in Bukit Timah on Jul 14.
Night-time weather during this period was generally cool with daily minimum temperatures dipping to between 22.3°C and 24°C on 10 days. The lowest daily temperature of 22.3°C was recorded in the Marina South area on Jul 12. Additionally, the daily maximum temperatures ranged between 28.7°C and 33.7°C.

SINGAPORE: IT giant Cisco officially opened its new regional headquarters in Singapore on Wednesday -- marking its 20th year in the city-state.
The new office houses Cisco's operations for Singapore and the greater Asia region -- including operations, sales, marketing, human resources, finance and Cisco services. It will also feature a customer briefing centre, where Cisco technologies will be available for demonstrations.
The 120,000 square feet office complex is located in the Changi Business Park and boasts an environmentally-friendly workspace. The building consolidates Cisco's 4 offices from around the island, putting its 1,000 employees all under the same roof.
As the IT industry continues to grow, the company said there is room to expand.
Jaime Valles, president (Asia Pacific, Japan and Greater China) at Cisco, said: "We are in the process of connecting the 99 per cent that is not connected. In fact for many years, the internet, since 1994 in Singapore, we have been able to connect one per cent of the devices that can be connected.
"And when you start connecting sensors, when you start connecting machine to machine, people to machine, we know it's going to change everything we do across Asia Pacific, Japan and China.
"And Singapore is very connected.In the world economic forum, in the network readiness index, it came across as one of the top three countries in the world. So it allows us to do that."
Cisco first came to Singapore in 1993 and established the city-state as its Greater Asia headquarters in January 1998.
