Dear all,

F.Y.I.

Expect afternoon showers — sometimes heavy and with thunder — over the weekend (Yahoo!).

Keep your umbrellas ready, heavy rain and high tidesare expected over the weekend from Saturday to Monday.

According to the National Environment Agency (NEA), afternoon showers with thunder coinciding with high tides of at least 3.3 metres could lead to localised flash floods. The low-lying areas at risk include Lorong Buangkok, Jalan Seaview, Meyer Road, Lorong 101-Lorong 106 Changi and Everitt Road North.

The public is advised to obtain the latest weather reports by tuning in to radio broadcasts or calling NEA’s weather forecast hotline at 6542-7788.

They can follow @NEAsg on Twitter, visit www.nea.gov.sg or access the mobile weather service, Weather@SG http://weather.nea.gov.sg.

The public can also call PUB’s 24-hour Call Centre at 1800-284 6600 to report obstructions in drains or to check the flood situation.
