Typhoon "Qiangpi" was located on the northwest Pacific Ocean at 05:00 on the morning of the 20th, about 1,860 kilometers east-southeast of Taipei City, Taiwan Province. The maximum wind force near the center was above level 17 (62 meters/second, super typhoon level). It is expected to continue to move west-northwest at a speed of 25 to 30 kilometers per hour, gradually approaching the ocean east of Taiwan, with little change in intensity. From the 21st, the wind force in the ocean east of Taiwan, the Taiwan Strait, and the Bashi Strait will gradually increase. At present, its movement path is still highly uncertain. It is necessary to pay close attention to its development dynamics and the subsequent impact of wind and rain on my country's eastern seas and coastal areas.

Lin Deen, a doctor of atmospheric sciences at National Taiwan University, pointed out that there are obvious differences in the future path of typhoon Qianbi among the numerical forecast models of various countries: some models predict that the typhoon will turn north near Ishigaki Island or Miyako Island, which will have less impact on Taiwan; other models continue to predict that Qianbi may land in Taiwan. He emphasized that around Thursday (22nd) will be an important observation time point to judge the subsequent path, and described the two paths as "edge ball" and "straight ball duel".

This year's No. 29 typhoon "Qiangpi" maintains the strength of a strong typhoon. It is currently located in the sea area 1,800 kilometers southeast and east of Eluanbi, moving northwest and west at a speed of 24 kilometers per hour. The Meteorological Administration predicts that its path will continue to move northward. The six counties and cities in northern and northern Taiwan, including Keelung, Taoyi, and Hua, have a storm probability of over 50% within 120 hours, with Keelung County and Yilan County being as high as 62%.

The Central Meteorological Administration pointed out that Typhoon No. 29 Qiangpi this year is currently a strong typhoon, and its forecast path continues to move northward. When it is closest to Taiwan from Friday to Saturday, it will gradually move northward and develop towards Japan. It will be cloudy to sunny across Taiwan, with scattered rainfall in some areas. The temperature and air quality conditions are as stated in the report.

On the evening of the 19th, a venomous snake umbrella section about 1.3 meters long appeared on the side road of Lufeng Elementary School in Tianwei Township, Changhua County. After being frightened, it crawled through the fence and entered the campus. A citizen named Lin witnessed the incident and took a video to post on Facebook to remind nearby residents and students to be vigilant and avoid being bitten by venomous snakes. Umbrella snakes are common and highly venomous snakes in Taiwan. They are active at night and have a gentle temperament. They often choose to escape when disturbed.

The strong typhoon Qiangpi is about 2,030 kilometers away from Taiwan and is expected to have the most severe impact on Taiwan from Friday to Saturday. The northeast monsoon will strengthen from Wednesday and it will turn rainy and cooler in the northern and eastern half. Coinciding with the National Liberation Day holiday, the Meteorological Administration reminds the public to prepare for typhoons in advance and pay attention to long waves and severe weather changes.
