SINGAPORE: The monsoon season has seen heavy rain falling over many parts of Singapore in the past few weeks. Hougang and Macpherson were affected by flash floods on Monday (Nov 17).
A clip posted on Instagram shows roads in Kovan awash with floodwaters at around 2pm.
In Tampines, the basement car park of Fortune Park condominium was flooded, leaving four cars partially submerged. Mr Dinesh, who called MediaCorp's news hotline (68 22 22 68), sent in photos of the incident.The rain has also been a dampener for companies that organise outdoor activities such as Forest Adventure. The company, which organises adventure courses, got fewer than 4,000 sign-ups for the year-end school holidays, compared to about 6,000 during the June holidays.
Last-minute cancellations are also common. Said Forest Adventure Managing Director Stephanie Besse: 'For instance, on Sunday, we had about 110 bookings on the grand course and about 85 on the kids course. We ended up with only 39 people coming.'
