The Central Meteorological Administration pointed out that today (17th) the easterly wind will continue, and there will be more water vapor on the eastern sea surface in the early morning. There will be local brief rains on the north coast and the eastern half of Keelung, and there is a chance of local heavy rains. The rain will slow down during the day, and it will be mostly cloudy to sunny in various places. On the windward side, there will still be sporadic rainfall on the north coast of Keelung, Yilan, Taitung, the Hengchun Peninsula and the southern mountainous areas in the afternoon.
The Meteorological Administration stated that this year's No. 29 Typhoon Qiangbi has intensified into a moderate typhoon at 2 a.m. today. It is located about 3,300 kilometers southeast and east of Eluanbi. In the next four days, it will move from the west to northwest to the southern sea of Ryukyu. It will gradually move from Thursday to Friday next week. It gradually turns northward and follows the trend of the sea east of Taiwan. However, there are still differences in the forecasts of various models. Some models have the possibility of affecting Taiwan more westward. There are still uncertainties in its development intensity, the northward turning angle of the path, and the distance from Taiwan. Please continue to pay attention to the latest typhoon forecast information.

Meteorological expert "Taiwan Typhoon Forum | Weather Emergency" pointed out that judging from the latest forecast data, although the final specific path of Typhoon Qiangbi remains to be seen, various traditional or AI models predict that Typhoon Qiangbi will pass through the "Taiwan to Okinawa" range from next Friday to Saturday.
"Taiwan Typhoon Forum | Extreme Weather Emergency" reminds us that the next step is to see whether the typhoon will move to the left or right. However, since Qiangbi is expected to become a medium-to-large typhoon, even if the center eventually moves to the right, relying solely on the peripheral circulation of the typhoon and the bonus of the northeast monsoon, it is almost certain that the weather will turn worse in the northern and eastern half. Please be mentally prepared for the first half of the holiday (as for the situation in the central and southern parts, it is to be determined).
In terms of temperature today, the low temperature in various places in the morning and evening is about 23 to 24 degrees, and it will be lower in some places. During the day, the high temperature in the eastern half is about 31 degrees, and in the western half is generally 33 to 34 degrees. The temperature in the central and southern inland will be higher. Please replenish water in time and pay attention to sun protection. The temperature difference between day and night is large. Please adjust your clothes in time to avoid catching cold when going out in the morning and evening.
