Weather forecast | High chance of rain and thunderstorms in Singapore

The Singapore Grand Prix is scheduled for this weekend and it could just be a spectacular edition. Weather.com is predicting rain and thunderstorms for the race weekend.

Formula 1 is gearing up for the final six races of the 2022 Formula 1 season, starting in Singapore. The Asian country hosts a fine evening race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, and usually this is a race that is exciting until the last lap. However, rain could provide an extra factor of interest.

According to Weather.com, there will be a lot of rain during the Grand Prix weekend. On Friday, morning thunderstorms are forecast and there is a 49 per cent chance of rain. The fact that it is 31 degrees at the time does ensure that wet track may also dry up quickly. However, the weather eases over the weekend.

On Saturday, it remains 31 degrees, but heavier rain and thunderstorms are then forecast for the entire day. There is a whopping 69 per cent chance of rain. On Sunday, the same weather persists. The temperature drops to 30 degrees and the chance of rain also slightly to 60 per cent, but thunderstorms will linger over the circuit all weekend.
