SINGAPORE: Flash floods have hit Upper Thomson Road after heavy rain on Thursday afternoon (Jan 19).

PUB Singapore first issued an alert at 3.44pm, informing the public of flash floods at the junction of Upper Thomson Road and Jalan Lembah Thomson. The national water agency added that one lane was affected.

This is the same area flooded with knee-deep water on Christmas Eve.
