The weather risk company said that Typhoon Shuliki is currently located in the waters south of Ryukyu. Since last night, the Pacific high pressure has gradually retreated eastward and slowed down. It has gradually begun to deflect to the north. It is expected to continue to deflect from north to northeast today and will pass over the waters south of Naha, Ryukyu tomorrow. The center of the typhoon will not be too close to the main island of Ryukyu, but the peripheral circulation will still bring wind and rain to the main island of Ryukyu. Since the typhoon's circulation range is relatively small and it is far away from Taiwan, it has no significant impact on the weather on Taiwan's mainland. During the three-day holiday period from the 26th to the 28th, Taiwan was mostly sunny to cloudy, with only sporadic brief showers in the mountainous areas in the afternoon.

Weather risk analyst Wu Shengyu issued an article today and pointed out that during the holidays, Taiwan will be relatively hot during the day, with high temperatures reaching 33 to 35 degrees in the western half, 36 degrees or above in some areas, and about 32 to 34 degrees in the eastern half. At night, the low temperature in the north-central and northeastern parts of Taiwan is 23 to 25 degrees, and the low temperature in some open areas is about 20 to 22 degrees. The low temperature in the southern and Huadong areas is 25 to 27 degrees, and the low temperature in some open areas is 22 to 24 degrees. It is slightly cooler at night and early in the morning. People who go out early and return late should pay more attention.

Drawn by the outer airflow of the typhoon, the wind direction near Taiwan has shifted to southerly to southwesterly. The wind and waves from the northern part of the Taiwan Strait to the north coast will increase tomorrow and the day after tomorrow due to the terrain. At the same time, long waves outside the typhoon will also come to the vicinity of Taiwan. Coupled with the influence of astronomical tides, friends who want to go to the beach during the holidays must still pay special attention to safety.

Wu Shengyu pointed out that Typhoon Shuliji has moved away from next Tuesday to Wednesday (29th to 30th), and there is still less water vapor. Various places will maintain a stable pattern of hot days and large temperature differences between day and night. A new wave of northeast monsoon will move south from the afternoon to evening of Thursday (October 1) and will affect the daytime of Saturday (October 3). It will not ease until Saturday night. Although the intensity is not strong, the chance of rainfall will increase in the north, northeast and east of the windward side. There will still be local short-lived showers in the afternoon in the central and southern mountainous areas, and the temperature in northern Taiwan will also drop slightly and become cooler.

On the evening of Sunday (October 4), a stronger northeast monsoon will move southward, and may continue until the second half of early October. In addition to the chance of rainfall on the windward side, the temperature may also become significantly cooler and remain for a longer period of time. The autumn mood will be more obvious, and subsequent forecast changes are worthy of observation. In addition, there will still be opportunities for typhoons to develop in the northwest Pacific from the end of September to early October. However, the scope of activities is expected to be in distant ocean waters, and the direction of movement will also turn northward, mainly near Japan. The chance of approaching Taiwan is low. There should be no need to worry about typhoons affecting Taiwan.
