The eastern-type super El Niño event formed in September and is expected to become the strongest event since monitoring began. It may lead to deterioration of atmospheric diffusion conditions in my country's autumn and winter, leading to long-term and large-scale heavy pollution. The Ministry of Ecology and Environment stated that it will optimize the response plan. Liaoning, Shaanxi and other places have launched intelligent monitoring platforms to closely monitor corporate emissions through digital means to ensure the stable operation of pollution control facilities.

Former Meteorological Bureau Director Zheng Mingdian said that the strong subtropical high pressure belt over Taiwan has led to the persistence of autumn tiger weather, and the possibility of this year's Typhoon No. 29 Qiangpi's track moving south has increased. It is expected to be closest to Taiwan on Friday and Saturday, and the temperature in the north will drop significantly starting from Wednesday.

The Central Meteorological Administration pointed out that it will be cloudy to sunny today, with some scattered rainfall; Typhoon No. 29 "Qiangpi" this year has intensified into a strong typhoon and is expected to be closest to Taiwan on Friday and Saturday, bringing localized heavy rain to the north and northeast; in terms of air quality, Bamboo Miao and the central part are at the orange warning level, the north, Yunjianan, Gaoping, Kinmen and Penghu are at the ordinary level, and Yilan, Huadong and Matsu are at the good level.

Due to weak winds, the fireworks show at the Qingcao Lake Autumn Fire Festival in Hsinchu City turned into a smoky "smoke lake", affecting air quality. People complained that the traffic routes outside the venue were poorly planned and the chaos on the scene was like a war escape scene. The city government responded that it had made adjustments and would continue to optimize.

On Sunday, it will be cloudy to sunny across Taiwan, with a high temperature of 34 degrees, and a large temperature difference between morning and evening. This year's No. 29 strong typhoon "Qiangpi" continues to intensify and is expected to be closest to Taiwan next Friday and Saturday. The uncertainty of its future path is high and direct impact cannot be ruled out. The Meteorological Administration reminds the public to pay attention to the latest forecast.

The Central Meteorological Administration announced that Typhoon Qiangbi strengthened into a severe typhoon at 8 pm on the 17th and developed rapidly. The typhoon is currently moving northwest to west, and is expected to be closest to Taiwan next Friday and Saturday. However, the subsequent path still has two different modes of turning north away from Taiwan or heading towards Taiwan, which requires continuous observation.
