Today in the mid to late afternoon, a heavy downpour just came right down just minutes before I alighted from the bus stop opposite my home.
As you can see, some ponding can be seen at the grass areas near the bus stop.
The drainage along the estate was quite full as well.
The amount of water flowing into the drains is quite incredible as show in the video link below.
I seriously do not know if this is for better or for worse. NEA has decided to follow the ruling party's advice that 24-hour PSI readings are more important to look at. As of 1800hrs onwards, the site has changed its presentation format.
Below is the screenshot of the old format. Bye bye! I will miss you! You have served us quite faithfully and well before and during this current haze crisis.
Here is the new format. Notice the focus on the 24-hour PSI reading, the blue scrolling bar is the only place you will see the current hour 3-hour PSI reading. All other information is gone!
The 2nd link for historical PSI reading does not provide the historical 3-hour PSI readings either.
Actually I thought they should provide even more details as we go deeper into this crisis like providing the spot hourly PSI readings in addition to the 3-hour PSI. But I think we all need to read the right thing and this is a step into that direction.
