Last month was Singapore's driest month since 1869, just 0.2mm of rainfall
 

THE dry spell is likely to continue, even as localised showers occur from time to time.

The spell, said the National Environment Agency (NEA) and PUB in a joint advisory yesterday, is expected to persist in the first half of this month.

Last month was Singapore's driest month since 1869. Just 0.2mm of rainfall - from only seven days of brief showers, mainly in western Singapore - was recorded at the Changi climate station, which NEA uses as a reference station.

The previous record was 6.3mm in February 2010.


The thirsty will likely get a reprieve later this month, when the expected onset of the inter-monsoon season brings rain.

But the thirsty will likely get a reprieve later this month, when the expected onset of the inter-monsoon season brings rain.

The advisory urged the public to conserve water by taking showers of under five minutes, washing clothes on a full load in washing machines, washing cars less often, and reusing water for non-potable (non-drinkable) purposes.

"The amount of water we save will help stretch our limited water resources longer," said the agencies.
