TR EMERITUS

Strong winds that people called a mini typhoon hit Singapore on Tuesday evening, September 17, toppling trees, snarling traffic and causing damage to a glass canopy outside UOB Plaza.

Almost the whole of Singapore received the storm's heaviest rainfall as it moved across the island.

The Sumatra Squall is a line of thunderstorms that develops over Sumatra, Indonesia, and moves over the Straits of Malacca, leading to heavy rain and strong winds in Singapore and Malaysia.
