Days hotter than 35°C almost all year round within this century: 5 key takeaways from Singapore's new climate study
By 2100, Singapore could possibly face very hot days, where daily maximum temperatures exceed 35 degrees Celsius, for up to 351 days in a year
It could also experience longer and more frequent dry spells and intense rainfalls
These were among the latest climate projections mapped out by the Centre for Climate Research Singapore, in a report published on Friday (Jan 5)
The projections will be used to help the Government plan how to protect Singapore from the effects of climate change
