Looks like we are having a span of very weird weather in Singapore these few days. Just yesterday and the entire of last week, we had rain. And it rained most of the day and night too. But just today, we had sunny weather! It was blazing hot all of a sudden. I had thought that it was going to be a rainy day again, but I was dead wrong. It was very sunny with no speck of clouds that I could see. However, in the evening, it started to rain again. Talk about extremes. Sounds like the weather is going crazy again. I guess we humans are to be blamed for this weather pattern for pumping out all sort of nasty gases into the environment. You reap what you sow. And looking around the world, we have seen a lot of evidence that if we don’t do anything to stop pumping out greenhouse gases into our air, we could be facing a big worldwide disaster. Food crops are failing, property/buildings destroyed or damaged and people are killed by the extreme weather.

However, I am glad for this break in the cold rainy weather. Every morning, I wake up freezing. And when I take the bus to work, it would be freezing in the air-conditioned bus as well. With today’s warm weather, it was much better in the morning and on the bus ride to work. I am usually not afraid of a little cold weather, but the last week, it was very chilly, especially in the morning. Feels a lot like what I experienced in Hong Kong last December, except that it was rainy in Singapore. You go to work and to lunch drenched. Not a good way to spend the day in the office. Plus the damn bus ride to and from office was so slow, because our bus drivers are all morons and cannot drive properly when it is raining.

I wonder what tomorrow will bring, more rain or more sun? With this kind of weathers, I think it would be hard for any forecast to be really reliable. It’s hard to plan for your weekends too. I am going to spend my weekends indoors this week. No point traveling to the beach only to find that it is raining cats and dogs.
