Singapore's tropical rainforest climate features year-round warmth and humidity, influenced by its equatorial location and maritime exposure. The year is characterized by two monsoon seasons and two inter-monsoon periods, the latter bringing intense afternoon thunderstorms. Rainfall is abundant and evenly distributed, averaging about 2,340 mm annually, though western areas often receive more rain than the east.
