Taiwan weather forecast: Northeasterly winds affect localized showers, Tropical Disturbance 91W may develop into Typhoon Shuliki No. 25, need attention during the second half of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday

Today (22nd), there will be a northeasterly wind around Taiwan. There will be local short-lived showers in the southern and central mountainous areas. Pay attention to the chance of heavier rain. There will be sporadic rain in the Hengchun Peninsula, and it will be cloudy to sunny in other areas. In the afternoon, there will also be sporadic short-lived showers in the south of Chiayi and in various mountainous areas.

Tropical Disturbance 91W is expected to become a tropical storm (Typhoon No. 25 Shuliki) in the near future. The future path 2 trend will have a great impact in the second half of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. We must continue to pay attention to the dynamics of this system.

Huang Guozhi, a weather analyst at Weather Risk Company, said that from Wednesday to Thursday (23rd to 24th), the environment around Taiwan will gradually shift to an easterly wind, and the moisture on the windward side will increase slightly. There will be short-term showers on the north coast of Keelung, Yilan, and the mountainous areas of Greater Taipei. There will be sporadic rain in the northern region, Hualien, and the Hengchun Peninsula. Most other areas will be cloudy to sunny. In the afternoon, there will be short-lived showers in the southern region and various mountainous areas.

Even in the early days of the holiday, it will remain cloudy to sunny in various places from Friday to Sunday (25th to 27th). Rainfall in the afternoon will still mainly occur in the mountainous areas and mountainous areas in the south. The high temperature in the northern region is about 30 to 33 degrees, the central region is about 32 to 33 degrees, the southern region is about 32 to 34 degrees, and the eastern region is about 30 to 31 degrees. Pay attention to sun protection and replenish water when going out.

Next Monday (28th), as disturbance 91W is currently located around Guam, it may be close to the influence of the sea surface in the southeast of Taiwan. Cloudiness will increase in the eastern region and the Hengchun Peninsula, with the opportunity for short-term showers in some places; it will be cloudy to sunny in other areas, with some rain in the mountainous areas in the afternoon.

Huang Guozhi pointed out that Disturbance 91W is expected to gradually develop into a tropical depression or mild typhoon (Typhoon No. 25 Shuliki) in the next 2 to 3 days. As the Pacific high pressure is still strong at present, 91W will generally move northwest and west first, and gradually approach the southeastern coast of Taiwan from Saturday to Sunday. At that time, various meteorological models will have different opinions on the weakening of the Pacific high pressure. The typhoon's follow-up path can be divided into two types: the high pressure weakens significantly, the typhoon turns north early, and the high pressure retreats eastward not significantly, and the typhoon slows down and continues to move westward toward Taiwan's periphery.

Since we are stuck in the second half of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, the public is reminded to pay more attention to the latest typhoon dynamic forecast information in the next few days, adjust activity arrangements appropriately, and reduce risks.
