Based on its current trajectory, it is not expected to have a significant impact on Taiwan, as it is still about 1800 km away and unlikely to intensify. Therefore, there's no need to worry about typhoon effects. However, from the 26th to the 27th, due to the influence of the northeast monsoon and a cold front moving south, there is a chance of rain across Taiwan, with temperatures dropping below 20°C. Be sure to stay warm in the early morning and evening.
