Taiwan’s northern and northeastern regions are experiencing cold temperatures, with the mercury hovering around 10 degrees Celsius or lower. Despite a weakening cold wave, warmer weather is expected next week. The Central Weather Administration has issued a cold warning for 17 cities, urging residents to take precautions. Friday’s humidity will decrease, with mostly sunny to cloudy weather in regions south of Hsinchu. However, areas facing the wind, such as the northern coast of Keelung, parts of the east, the Hengchun Peninsula, and the mountainous areas of Taipei, may still see localized rain. Former CWA Weather Forecast Center director Daniel Wu predicts a wind transition from northeastern to easterly and then southeasterly from Monday to Thursday, leading to a daily rise in temperature. This shift will bring clear weather in the west and sporadic, brief rain in the east, with the possibility of fog in western regions and surrounding Kinmen and Matsu islands.

The Central Weather Administration has issued a heavy rain advisory for Keelung City and New Taipei City due to the influence of the northeast monsoon. However, rain chances are expected to decrease as the day progresses. Meanwhile, conditions south of Hsinchu will remain mostly cloudy to sunny. Temperature variations are significant, with morning and evening lows ranging from 16 to 19 degrees Celsius, and daytime highs anticipated to reach 21 to 24 degrees in the north and Yilan, and 26 to 28 degrees in other areas. Starting Monday, a drier northeast monsoon will bring cooler air, resulting in clearer skies in the western part of the country and a halt in brief rain in the east. Stable and sunny conditions are predicted across the region, but residents should be mindful of the substantial temperature differences between day and night, with low temperatures potentially falling to around 12 degrees across the plains of Taiwan and lows near 16 degrees in Taipei.
