Invest in a good umbrella
A good umbrella goes a long way. Heavy rain? That’s no issue for WonderDri - a smart umbrella that has a unique inverted design. It turns inside out when closing to keep the wet inside, so you won’t get drenched while getting into or out of the car. Unlike flimsy umbrellas that go out of shape when under pressure, WonderDri has a strong fibreglass structure that flexes and snaps back into shape, even resisting strong winds of up to 50km/h. All you need is a simple push of a button to close the umbrella, in addition to its water-repelling abilities. Its two layers of fabric not only repel water but also provide strong UV protection from the sun. It also stands on its own, making it fuss-free, convenient, and an absolute must-have for rainy days.

Do laundry like a pro
If it’s raining, one thing’s for sure - sun-drying is NOT happening. Drag your laundry indoors as soon as you can. Pro tip - make sure to find a drying area that’s well ventilated as much as possible. Switch on the fans or dehumidifiers to absorb moisture from the air, and make sure to space your clothes out when you’re hanging them to dry to lessen odour and dampness. Another big tip to avoid laundry that smells is to add fabric conditioner to your washing machine load. This helps prevent bacteria growth and gives your clothes a nice, fresh smell.
Safe driving
Rain can be super dangerous for driving, so it’s important to use extra caution while driving. If your journey can be postponed, it’s better to wait for the rain to stop before driving. But if you absolutely have to be somewhere, here are some essential tips. Rule number one, always check your tyres. Ensure there is sufficient tread depth, and replace them immediately if they’re too worn out. This also might sound like common sense, but remember to slow down and drive slower than you normally would as your car’s reaction time would be slower than normal. Lastly, remember to maintain a safe following distance. Keep a greater distance between the front vehicle and your car to give yourself more time and distance to react in any event.
