### New WBGT stations available

Singapore's Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) monitoring network just got significantly bigger, giving you heat stress data from more locations across the country direct from the National Environment Agency’s Meteorological Service Singapore (MSS)

**🆕 Six new monitoring stations now live:**

* S187 - Bukit Timah (West)
* S139 - Tuas Terminal Gateway
* S140 - Choa Chu Kang Stadium
* S141 - Yio Chu Kang Stadium
* S142 - Sentosa Palawan Green
* S143 - Punggol North

**Why this matters:**

* Better coverage: More granular heat stress monitoring across Singapore
* Workplace safety: Enhanced data for outdoor work planning
* Health insights: Improved understanding of heat exposure patterns

This dataset is currently being leveraged by the likes of the Singapore-ETH Centre for research, powering the MyENV app and heat stress alerts for construction sites and companies throughout Singapore.
