The CWA said rainfall is expected in northern Taiwan on Thursday before the front moves southward to central and southern Taiwan on Friday and Saturday, picking up strength on the way. According to Focus Taiwan, due to the wet weather, the CWA said, daytime temperatures around Taiwan are expected to fall slightly on Thursday from 30-33 degrees a day earlier, while highs on Friday and Saturday are likely to tumble further to 23-25 degrees in the north and 26-27 degrees in central and southern Taiwan. Echoing the CWA, independent meteorologist Wu Der-rong said localized showers and thunderstorms are possible on Saturday, and he warned of lightning strikes, strong winds, and sudden downpours in affected areas. The weather is expected to stabilize on Sunday, however, and remain stable into Monday as the weather fr ont leaves Taiwan, the CWA said. On Wednesday, warm southerly winds will continue to boost temperatures around Taiwan, and mountainous areas in the south could see daytime highs reach 36 degrees or above, the CWA said.
