Explore the latest weather advisory from the Central Weather Administration as it warns of unstable conditions and potential heavy rainfall across Taiwan, impacting cities from Keelung to Changhua. With a frontal system approaching, expect significant downpours, especially on Friday and Saturday, alongside advisories for lightning, gusty winds, and possible landslides in mountainous regions. Northern Taiwan will see cooler temperatures, while the rest of the island braces for varied weather phenomena into next week.

The Central Weather Administration (CWA) announced a sharp drop in temperatures across Taiwan due to the peak intensity of the northeastern monsoon. The coldest region recorded was 15.3 degrees Celsius in Yangmei District, Taoyuan. Professor Wu Der-Romg from National Central University warned that the next monsoon surge could bring even colder temperatures, potentially reaching a record low of 11 degrees Celsius this year. The CWA also reported torrential rain in Yilan and Taipei, raising concerns about severe flooding and potential landslides. Clear skies are expected for the next three days due to the arrival of continental highs, but there may be sharp temperature variations in certain areas. The CWA predicts the presence of a mild typhoon, locally called ＂Jelawat,＂ passing by Taiwan tomorrow morning, although its projected path remains uncertain.

The Central Weather Administration predicts that Typhoon Bolaven will intensify into a moderate typhoon on Monday, October 9, potentially becoming a severe typhoon as it moves northward. Heavy rain advisories have been issued for Yilan, Keelung, Taipei, and New Taipei, with a higher chance of rainfall in the northern and eastern parts of Taiwan. The typhoon, currently southeast of Guam, is expected to veer northeastward by Friday, October 13, posing no significant threat to Japan. Local authorities are urging residents in affected areas to stay updated on weather forecasts and take necessary precautions, particularly in low-lying areas where flooding and landslides are possible due to heavy rainfall.
