As the continental cold air mass moves southward, localized brief showers are expected in eastern and mountainous regions of western Taiwan, while northern areas will see cloudy skies after localized brief showers. Other regions, as well as Penghu, Kinmen, and Matsu, will be mostly cloudy. On Monday the 13th, most of Taiwan, along with Penghu, Kinmen, and Matsu, will be mostly sunny to cloudy, with only scattered brief showers in the eastern and southeastern regions.
Starting Wednesday the 15th, the continental cold air mass will weaken, and daytime temperatures will gradually rise. However, due to radiative cooling in the early morning, temperatures will remain on the low side. From the 15th to the 18th, localized brief showers are expected in the eastern and northern mountainous regions, while other areas will be mostly cloudy to sunny.
As we step into spring, weather changes rapidly—stay alert to shifts, mind warmth, and watch for day-night temperature differences. When using gas water heaters or electric heating appliances, ensure proper indoor ventilation and electrical safety. Be cautious of respiratory and cardiovascular issues caused by morning and evening chills. Don’t forget to check on the elderly, homeless individuals, and vulnerable groups regarding cold protection measures. Farmers and aquaculture operators should be wary of frost damage.
