Singaporeans can expect thundery showers mostly in the afternoon on six to eight days of October in exchange of the dry and warm days that happen in the last couple of weeks.

The Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS) stated the daily temperature is forecast to range between 25 degrees Celsius and 33 degrees Celsius on most days.

The met service then said that the maximum temperature is expected to be around 34 deg C on a few days when there is little or no rainfall.

Overall, the rainfall for the first fortnight of October is expected to be near-normal, it added.

The authority noted the dry and warm weather conditions have been around since mid-September as the result of south-west monsoon conditions with low level winds blowing from the southeast or south.

These are expected to gradually weaken in the first fortnight of October, it said.

The meteorological service also said that in the second half of September, the daily maximum temperature recorded hit a high of 35.2 degrees Celsius.

本地患者体内惊现变种病毒 专家:无证据表明病毒传播和毒性更强

在本地冠病患者体内发现变种病毒,但传染病专家表示,当前仍未有足够证据,能证明变种病毒的传播力和毒性更强。 自冠状病毒19疫情爆发以来,基因学家已不断将致病的冠状病毒 SARS-CoV-2 基因组排序,从而了解病毒传播机制。 据《立场新闻》报导,SARS-CoV-2 基因组平均每个月就可累积到两个改变,大部分改变都不会影响病毒活动。 不过部分仍可能会影响到病毒的传染及严重性。 而根据外国研究显示,排在第614位的氨基酸发生突变,使变异体从“D”(aspartic acid,即天门冬氨酸)变成了“G”(glycine,即甘氨酸)。因此被称为614G病毒。 这样的细微改变使刺突更稳定,导致病毒更容易侵入宿主的细胞,并产生更高的病毒载量。 根据《联合早报》报导,冠状病毒表面的刺突蛋白必须附着在宿主、也就是患者细胞上,病毒才能侵入细胞,这个刺突蛋白由千多种氨基酸(amino acids)组成。…
