Incoming warm and humid nights in early June, with temperatures hitting 35 degrees Celsius in Singapore
We're back with another weather update. After a very soggy May, it looks like Singapore's rainy spell is finally easing up a little this June.
According to the Meteorological Service Singapore, we can expect warm and humid nights in the first half of the month. While there will still be some thundery showers, they won't occur every day – and we'll start seeing more sunny spells. Expect localised, short thundery showers in the late mornings and afternoons on some days, along with gusty winds and widespread rain during the pre-dawn hours and early mornings, thanks to the Sumatra squalls.
If you've been enjoying the chillier weather, don't get too comfortable – temperatures in June are set to hover around 34 degrees Celsius, with a few days possibly climbing to a toasty 35 degrees. But hey, Singaporeans are built for the heat, right?
Take advantage of the drier days by heading out to explore the i Light Singapore 2025 installations or indulge in the food and music at GastroBeats 2025. If the rain does make a return, there's still plenty of indoor activities to check out, like and Pop Air – Art is Inflatable by The Balloon Museum.

Britain's sunny spring brings a bumper strawberry crop
MAIDSTONE, England June 4 (Reuters) - Strawberry season has arrived early to Britain this year thanks to a "near perfect" spring blend of warm days, cool nights and high sunshine levels, growers said. The favourable conditions have meant sweeter, larger and more shapely strawberries arriving earlier on supermarket shelves this year and lower prices for shoppers. James Miller, the commercial director of Maidstone, southeast England-based WB Chambers Farms, said regular daytime temperatures in May of 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit), dropping to 9 C overnight, along with high light levels were the key to the exceptional early season crop. "(That's) really helped the plants to develop and to produce the sweet and large berries that we've got at the moment," he told Reuters. "The warm and sunny weather has been welcome for strawberry growing this year." Late last month, Tesco (TSCO.L), opens new tab, Britain's biggest supermarket group, said it had taken on extra stock from UK strawberry growers and had cut the price shoppers pay for 400g punnets from 2.50 pounds ($3.38) to 1.50 pounds. It expects to sell about 25% more strawberries this year than last. Miller said growing conditions this spring were very different to last year when Britain experienced a much colder and wetter start to the fruit growing season. He said all farmers understood that they have to adapt to climate change, and be prepared for changing circumstances. "We have to invest in the technology. That means that we understand the weather impact on the crops and how we change our irrigation or feeding routines for the future," he said. Miller also welcomed the news that the government is in the process of resetting trade ties with the European Union, which should make it easier to export. The sooner a deal comes the better. "If it was this summer, then this season, that would be fantastic," he said. ($1 = 0.7389 pounds)

England coach Tuchel expects players to suffer in World Cup heat
LONDON, June 3 (Reuters) - England coach Thomas Tuchel will attend FIFA's Club World Cup starting this month to observe how players cope with the expected hot and humid weather conditions. Next year's World Cup, taking place in the United States, Canada and Mexico, could be one of the hottest in the tournament's history. "It is important to see matches now in America, and in Miami at three in the afternoon," Tuchel said as he prepared his team for their World Cup qualifier against Andorra in Barcelona. "I will see that. How it looks, and we need to understand how to cool the players down, to drink. What our options are." England are top of qualifying Group K and almost certain to qualify for next year's tournament where they will be among the favourites for the title. But Tuchel says the conditions will be harsh. "Let's see because it is after the season, so it will be very similar. The actual experience is for the players, but I have done pre-season there in Orlando and I will be very surprised if we do not suffer," he said. "Suffering is one of the headlines for this World Cup." England are preparing for the Andorra game in the Spanish city of Girona and are using heat tents to test the players reaction and recovery to training in heat and humidity. Sixteen stadiums will be used at next year's World Cup with predictions of potentially extreme temperatures. In Dallas, one of the host cities, in an average year more than 80% of June and July days exceed 28 degrees Celsius. A study led by Brunel University found that, according to analysis of 20 years of weather data, 14 of the 16 host stadiums would top 28 degrees Celsius on a daily basis in June and July with four likely to hit 32 degrees in a hotter than summer. FIFPRO, the world players union, recommends that if there is Wet Bulb Globe Temperature of between 28-32 degree, cooling breaks should take place around the 30th and 75th minutes. It says that if there is a WBGT of more than 32 degrees, training and matches should be rescheduled.
