Stay updated on the cold surge advisory affecting New Taipei City, Keelung City, Taoyuan City, and Hsinchu County in Taiwan. Meteorologist Lin Te-en forecasts the cold wave to persist until Feb. 28, with temperatures possibly remaining around or below 10 degrees Celsius.

Prepare for cooler, rainy weather in northern Taiwan before Lunar New Year’s Eve, followed by clear skies from New Year’s Day through the fifth day of the new year. Temperatures will steadily drop, possibly dipping below 10 Celsius degrees as New Year’s Eve approaches, due to a cold air mass from the continent. Conditions will gradually improve to partly sunny with a chance of local brief rain in the eastern half of the island. Temperatures range from 12 to 19 degrees in the north, 13 to 25 in the central region, 16 to 29 in the south, and 15 to 26 in the east. On New Year’s Day, weather will turn clear and dry, but the morning of the next day will see temperatures fall to their lowest, with some flat areas experiencing temperatures below 10 degrees.

The Central Weather Administration (CWA) has issued cold advisories for multiple counties and cities in response to dropping temperatures in Taiwan. The whole island experienced chilly weather, with temperatures ranging from 11 to 14 degrees Celsius. Some areas, including Hsinchu, Yilan, and Hualien, prepared for temperatures around 10 degrees Celsius. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) predicts brief spells of rain in northern and eastern Taiwan, as well as mountainous regions in the central and southern parts of the island. Some low-lying areas may also experience occasional light rain. Mount Hehuan, Xueshan, and Mount Nanhu, all above 3,000 meters, are expected to have subzero temperatures and a high chance of snowfall. However, no further strong cold air influence is expected before the New Year. Starting next Tuesday, the cold air will gradually recede, leading to clear skies and a gradual increase in temperatures. Climate expert Chia Hsin-hsing emphasized the unpredictability of the New Year’s weather and advised the public to stay updated with the latest forecasts.
