Crazy weather forecasts

One thing that amazes me about Singapore is the climate itself. I thought I would have a much harder time getting used to but I suppose once you set your mind and accept the fact it is something you cannot change it starts being tolerable.

The funny thing about tropical weather is that you never know what to carry, an umbrella or sunglasses, so you carry around both!
And also the fact that you can never depend on the weather forecast (like I could in Europe) is crazy. I just stopped counting on the weather reports and started watching the sky, trying to guess when it will rain.

It usually happens during lunch time, the classical Murphy’s Law, everyone goes out and it pours.

Speaking of weather forecasts, it’s very funny because they have different weather forecasts for each part of the city/country and you can cross the whole country on foot in half day. Can you believe it?!

“Today, Singapore will experience rain in the North part of the country, later on the rain will go to the South and eventually to the East part”…

…hmmm that ‘later on’ means in 6 minutes :P

Hahaha the country is the size of my city and forecast means that: IT WILL RAIN, full stop!

Hilarious,

Anyways, just a thought…

I am alive, having a blast and as you can imagine have about a zillion things to write about but lack of time…
